Indeed, it doesn't work for USB sticks, since we don't have a /etc/fstab entry
for usb sticks, which appear as random /dev/sd## entries, depending on the usb
stick model used and if you have other scsi or sata devices in your system.
Here is what i get :
Aug 12 08:52:05 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 2

so i guess modifying the scsi.agent or usb.agent to add/remove the /etc/fstab
entry should be a nice solution for this.
