Jessie was the first Debian version to use systemd by default as
the init. Perhaps, something was installed as a systemd dependency that
wouldn't have been installed with the new Beowulf computer under
sysvinit that carried forward with a dist-upgrade of Jessie to
Beowulf. Or you installed something on the old system that wasn't
installed on the new one, and that is doing the automounting.

Of course, this is all speculation. It would have been nice if you had
notes of what you installed on both systems. Right now, I doubt if
you'll be able to discover (in a timely manner) what's causing the old
system to automount and the new one not.
