Not sure if this will work for sarge (this is on unstable), but ...
install the udev package
look in /usr/share/doc/udev/writing_udev_rules
Here I my rules (stored in /etc/udev/rules.d/01akcrules) and ignoring the mail
linewrap
# Portable Flash Storage
BUS=="usb", SYSFS{product}=="JUMPDRIVE ELITE", KERNEL=="sd?1", NAME="flash",
SYMLINK="jumpdrive flash"
BUS=="usb", SYSFS{product}=="USB DISK 2.0", KERNEL=="sd?1", NAME="flash" ,
SYMLINK="integral_storage flash"
Then I have the following entry in /etc/fstab
/dev/flash /media/flash vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0
I think the following is unstable only
KDE notices it, and asks what I wish to do - will mount it automatically
