On Mon, Sep 10, 2012 Chris Stankevitz asked how to automount a USB stick :
A GUI is not necessary. Every time a USB device is inserted or removed,
an "event" is triggered by the kernel. What's required is
an "event handler" that reacts appropriately to those events.
This is usually udev, but mdev will also work.

Why do people want to automount these sticks ?
Because 99.9% of the time, the sole reason you plugged them in is to
mount them rather than just watch its LED light up :-P There's no
reason not to mount them.
