+The purpose of the /media directory is to provide a consistent place
+across different systems for users and applications to mount
+removeable media. For example, this might be used by KDE's
+Media Manager feature in Konqueror. That will look into /etc/fstab
+to determine where to mount a volume, and for now this still defaults
+to using /mnt (e.g. /mnt/cdrom as the cdrom mount point), but you
+may edit your /etc/fstab if you'd like to follow the FHS
+recommendations.
+
+See the /mnt directory also.
