I thought you got /media/disk in that case. Strange. I guess my memory is playing tricks on me. I seemed to remember I recently had an issue where an USB stick wouldn't auto mount and I concluded the fact that it was unlabeled was the cause. But trying to mount an USB drive with unlabeled partitions on it indeed mounts them as /media/disk, /media/disk-1 etc. Sorry for the misinformation.
