Comment:

 I ran some tests with plugging/unplugging USB sticks (and a third SD
 card).  That allowed me to better understand what I am being shown by os44
 regarding removable storage resources:

  1)  When I plug in a removable storage devide (e.g., an USB stick) and
 let it be "automounted", the icon for it shows up in Frame, in Journal,
 and in Object Chooser.[[BR]]
  2)  But when I manually mount a removable storage device, no icon for it
 shows up in any of those places.[[BR]]
  3)  In os44 my "permanent" SD card is "fixed-mounted" through /etc/fstab
 - and its icon does not show up in Frame or Journal or Object Chooser.

 Quozl was right - I *do* have changes which I make to the configuration on
 os44 (see #9706).  In os40 and earlier, my SD card got "automounted" in
 time for Sugar start-up to see it.  [And then its icon showed up in Frame
 and in Journal (I don't remember about Object Chooser).]  But now in os42
 (and later), I have an entry for my SD card in /etc/fstab which points to
 /sdc (a mount point I manually added to the root filesystem).
