[poky] Prevent auto-mounting?

[Gary Thomas]

How do I keep a file system from being automatically mounted?
In particular, I want to automate this sequence:
   * [re]partition a disk using sfdisk
   * format the partitions
   * mount & use the partitions

The problem I have is that when sfdisk completes and the disk label
is reread by the kernel, some process(?) goes off and tries to mount
the partitions.  This not only gets in the way of reformatting those
partitions, but it may be 100% incorrect as the disk layout may have
changed.

Any ideas what process is doing this and how I stop it?
