udev and automounting



Hello,

I'm really having trouble getting my head around udev and udev rules for removeable USB devices. When I plug in my USB stick, it automounts under /media/sda1. What I don't like is that I have to "su" to write to the stick and to unmount it again, so this automounting is pretty useless. I've tried to decipher the files under /etc/udev to find the rule that actually mounts stuff, but grepping for "mount" just shows me some unmounting detail in a file called "hal.rules".

What I'd like is:

1. Automounting USB mass storage devices under some unique name determined
   by the label of the partition

2. Write access and unmounting by normal user.

I've seen this work transparently under Gnome and KDE, but I use fvwm or no X at all so that's no option for me.

Thanks
--D.
