Added 5th drive to Default Storage Group and it is not 
recognized by MythTV in the FrontEnd System Status - Machine 
Status.  Also, I cannot make it record to the 5th drive.

Ubuntu 12.04  32 bit desktop

MythTV  fixes/0.25

I have a total of five discs in the Default Storage Group.

BigDisc3 and BigDisc4 are recently added.  MythTV recognizes all 
but BigDisc4.  They all seem to automatically mount okay, as far 
as I can tell.  Here are the particulars:

I've looked through several logs without seeing anything about 
BigDisc4 and I keep staring at the two discs and I can't see why 
BigDisc3 is and BigDisc4 is not recognized.
