Install the usbmount package

~~{{Code|Code=~~ sudo apt-get install usbmount}}

This will install the daemon and create some empty mount points at /media/usb0-7

If you need to mount an NTFS drive, then you need to edit the config file:

~~{{Code|Code=~~ sudo nano /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf}}

<pre>

# Filesystem types: removable storage devices are only mounted if they

If you use USB drives regularly you might want to add a symlink under /var/hda/files for one or more of the mountpoints, for example:

~~{{Code|Code=~~ ln -s /media/usb0 /var/hda/files/drives/usb}}

That's it!
