I've had this happen (without the power failure part) on CentOS 4, and
found it to be a problem with the HAL daemon and/or
gnome-volume-manager. Did HAL start up properly when the system
restarted? Do you have a gnome-volume-manager process running?
As a partly-related aside, can anyone explain why the "usermount"
program has disappeared from the standard Gnome menus in CentOS 5? In
3 and 4 it appeared under System Tools -> Disk Management. I presume
it's an upstream thing, but a few googlings have not found anything
about the motivation for the change.
