Recall my /etc/udev/rules.d/local.rules:
BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="JUMPDRIVE", NAME="%k", symlink="jumpdrive"
BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="JUMPDRIVE PRO", NAME="%k", symlink="jumpdrive_pro"

BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="C2Z,D520Z,C220Z", NAME="%k", symlink="camera"
BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="Palm Handheld", NAME="%k", symlink="pilot"
Here's the contents of /etc/auto.misc (beware of long lines):
cdrom -fstype=iso9660,ro,sync,nodev,nosuid,gid=cdrom :/dev/cdroms/cdrom1
floppy -fstype=auto,sync,nodev,nosuid,gid=floppy,dmask=002,fmask=113

I figure that using removable usb media is morally equivalent to using a
floppy, so I just mount them as gid floppy.
I have symlinks in /etc/media for all of these devices:
/media/camera -> /var/autofs/misc/camera
/media/cdrom -> /var/autofs/misc/cdrom
/media/floppy -> /var/autofs/misc/floppy
/media/jukebox -> /var/autofs/misc/jukebox
/media/jumpdrive -> /var/autofs/misc/jumpdrive
/media/jumpdrive_pro -> /var/autofs/misc/jumpdrive_pro
/media/jumpdrive_trio -> /var/autofs/misc/jumpdrive_trio
/media/smartmedia -> /var/autofs/misc/smartmedia
I shortened the timeout in /etc/default/ to 2 seconds from 300, this may be
a bit too short but it hasn't caused problems yet.
I don't use KDE or Gnome, so for a visual indication of mounts I setup the
gkrellm file system krell for each of these mountpoints with the 'show if
mounted' checkbox ticked.
