[gentoo-user] [OT] auto mounting and umounting flash drives using udev rule

[Francisco Ares]

Hi,

Looking for alternatives on the subject, I've found this:

http://www.unixli.com/q/answers-automount-usb-sticks-on-gentoo-78276.html

It looks good, for now, it creates a directory named after the VFAT
partition name under "/media" and then it mounts the flash drive on it.

Regarding umounting, it umounts the drive after it is removed, which looks
strange (to say the least) to me.

Did I miss something? Or, in other words, is there a way of forcing
operations on a usb flash media to always flush buffers and/or caches as
fast as possible?

Thanks,
Francisco
