I modified /etc/hotplug/usb.agent from
-----------------begin-----------------------------------------------------------------------
if [ "$HOTPLUG_START_USB" != "yes" ]; then
mesg Setting up USB devices switched of. Exiting usb.agent ...
exit 0
fi
-------------------end---------------------------------------------------------------------
to
-----------------begin-----------------------------------------------------------------------
if [ "$HOTPLUG_START_USB" != "yes" ]; then
/usr/local/sbin/usb
exit 0
fi
-------------------end---------------------------------------------------------------------
You can see my /usr/local/sbin/usb at
http://www.troszynski.de/pub/usr_local_sbin_usb
The script mounts the configured devices always at the same mountpoint. You
have to configure this script. You will find the informations you need by
plug in your device and run 'hwinfo --usb --short'.
