No, the program for mounting devices to /media/whatever is intelligent
enough to not mount two devices at the same mount point. Actually it
isn't too intelligent because it only seems to check if the directory
/media/<label> already exists, no matter if there is something mounted.
If /media/<label> exists, the device will be mounted at a new directory
/media/<label>-1 /media/<label>-2 etc.
