Yeah, on my 11.1 box, I've a small Vista partition (came with the system
and I left it "just in case" I needed it for something, but shrunk it
down really small) and I noticed that the system mounts them at boot time
automatically. I'm kinda assuming with the live media it's there - would
make sense to me if it was, since one might want to use the software on
the disc to open doc files to check compatibility.
