The older "mount" command has been deprecated, as of (at least some of)
the newer Linux distros. It no longer works for mounting removable drives,
unless you do some hacking of the /etc/fstab file (not recommended). The
"gnome-mount" command replaces "mount" for manual command-line mounting.

You may have gnome-mount installed, even absent the gnome base. See if
it's in /usr/bin (ls /usr/bin/gnome-mount).
