A little somehting I rigged up when I found the Python call to be Linux
specific:

"""
mount_list
Taste the system and return a list of mount points.
On UNIX this will return what a df will return
On DOS based systems run through a list of common drive letters and
test them
to see if a mount point exists. Whether a floppy or CDROM on DOS is
currently active may present challenges.
Curtis W. Rendon 6/27/200 v.01
  6/27/2004 v.1 using df to make portable, and some DOS tricks to get
active
drives. Will try chkdsk on DOS to try to get drive size as statvfs()
doesn't exist on any system I have access to...
