Dear USB Users

Specific directions for help here are proving to be elusive. After a usb
memory stick is plugged into a particular computer, I would like a script to
initiate a firebird database backup command (./gbak command). Then would it
be possible to automatically unmount the device? Could someone please
advise? 

The OS is centos 4.3 - that has the hot plugging functionality as I
understand. 

So I imagine:
-(whatever scripts to have a specific usb stick recognised and mounted)
-cd /opt/firebird/bin
-./gbak -v -b -user -password /opt/firebird/database_file /usb_device/
-then a script to automatically unmount the usb device (i.e. light goes out)
so I can see its finiished

After I obtain a usb memory stick, does it need to be formatted in any
particular way for linux?

Hope someone can help!
