I think hard disk partitions have to be regarded as removable in this respect for the sake of Knoppix, at least I do not see another option in the originally linked doument.If I do have understood the document, /mnt should not be a list of mountpoint but only a temporary mount point... so the symlink(s) will not feat to the FHS 2.3 But then I do not know what to do with disc partition (they are not removable...)
And of course hard disks could be removable without the system having any real way of knowing this (a hot-swapable drive doesn't appear any different to a non-removable one and while in one respect a usb drive can be seen as removable they also appear as scsi drives).
So it sounds like all traces of /mnt should become /media and /mnt should simply be left as an empty directory for manual use by the admin for temporary mounting.
