Im perfectly familiar with fstab, thats not why i wanted to avoid it. The reason was simply that depending on the number, type and order of usb devices plugged in, the actual device names can be different, hence i wanted it to use the model id's and so on to generate say /mnt/camera or /mnt/ usbstick rather than sdb/sdc etc which may be different depending on whether the stick or the camera was plugged in first.
