You can still do this, but you now need to use gnome-mount rather than 
mount.  Don't be fooled by 'gnome' in the name, this is a command line 
application which allows the mounting and unmounting of removable media 
in the same way as they would have been automounted interactively within 
gnome.

It's a bit of a pain getting used to the fact that this has changed, but 
it's no harder than the old way once you've got used to it.
