Roy, I've had good success using the automount program.
I also use the usb plugin. plugin.activate('usb') plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='video', args=('USB Device 1', '/mnt/usb/device_a')) plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='audio', args=('USB Device 1', '/mnt/usb/device_a')) plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='image', args=('USB Device 1', '/mnt/usb/device_a')) plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='video', args=('USB Device 2', '/mnt/usb/device_b')) plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='audio', args=('USB Device 2', '/mnt/usb/device_b')) plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='image', args=('USB Device 2', '/mnt/usb/device_b')) Jim Roy Wood wrote: > I've got Freevo running on a Ubuntu Server system, and currently don't > have any automount system installed. > > I'd like to have the box automatically mount USB thumbdrives and such > when they are plugged in.
