Automounting USB drives SliTaz 4

I need the system to automount / auotunmount any pendrive a suitable user might plug / unplug into the proper port

As of now, I have noticed any removable drive I plug will appear in pcmanfm. Media not yet mounted will automatically mount on customer click over the proper left bar entry. The mapping / mounting keeps on even if I remove the drive from the port.

However, I need the drives to auto mount / unmount so that no keyboard / mouse interaction is needed: the system won't have any!

Kind regards and thanks for being there!

Re: Automounting USB drives SliTaz 4

I have found a reference to autofs in the older version of this forum.

I tried to google it and found some interesting hints here and there.

Since autofs is included among slitaz packages, what would be the best way to use it in order to let any flash-drive automatically mounted on plug and unmounted on unplug?

I will keep researching it, but it would be quite useful to have your hints.

Kind regards,

Antonio
