If you're manually mounting things via fstab, you need to make sure that
the mount point is already created (your /media/usb-disk). It won't
create them for you.
However, since /media is used by the auto-mount system, you might want
to make your mountpoint somewhere else where it can't clash (like
in /mnt), or turn off the auto-mounting services.
