Perhaps related to my issue posted to debian.maint.kde about a week ago?
I happened upon a debian-installer bug report which points out that if one needs firmware from a stick during installation a line such as
"/dev/sdb1 /media/usb0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0"
may be left behind in /etc/fstab by the installer. Commenting this out allows the expected writable kde mount point to be used.
