pmount not working in M8 test 2

Previously I was able to mount my usb sticks with pmount. In M8 test 2 I get the followng:

$ pmount -w /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
Error: device /dev/sdb1 is not removable

I realize that pcmanfm now works for mounting these sticks, but is there anyway to get pmount working again? pmount is convenient. I make aliases in my ~/.bashrc:

Code: Select all

alias mountusb='pmount -w /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1'
alias umountusb='pumount /media/sdb1'

Thanks, Steve
