[Discuss] 'nother question

My first thought is that /media is used by the volume manager to
automount things like USB drives, and perhaps telling gphotofs to
use /media caused a conflict that broke the volume manager.

If this is the case, I'd suggest a reboot to clear the conflict, and then
in future use some other directory for gphotofs.
