Here are a couple of my rules for my two usb jumpdrives: BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="JUMPDRIVE", KERNEL="sd?1", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="jumpdrive" BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="JUMPDRIVE2", KERNEL="sd?1", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="jumpdrive_sport" The symlink e.g. /dev/jumpdrive shows up when I plug the drive in. In /etc/fstab, I have an entry like so: /dev/jumpdrive /mnt/jumpdrive vfat noauto,noatime,user 0 0 Then I can mount the drive from Computer in Nautilus. HTH, Travis Fraser
