1. Install the goodies:
# aptitude install autofs pmount
2. Edit autofs config file:
# sudo vi /etc/auto.master
| /media /etc/auto.media --ghost |
3. Get your device ID:
# ls /dev/disk/by-id/ | grep iPod
| usb-Apple_iPod_000A270012E6900E usb-Apple_iPod_000A270012E6900E-part1 usb-Apple_iPod_000A270012E6900E-part2 |
4. Create custom config for media:
# sudo vi /etc/auto.mediausb -fstype=vfat :/dev/disk/by-id/usb-KINGMAX_USB2.0_Flashdisk_00000000000064-part1 ipod -fstype=vfat,iocharset=iso8859-1,fmask=0117,dmask=0007,gid=plugdev :/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Apple_iPod_000A270012E6900E-part2 |
You can use UUID instead of ID to identify your device. It's shorter. You could also use LABEL but there would be a chance of a conflict.
| ipod -fstype=vfat :/dev/disk/by-uuid/A5D3-DF28 |
5. Reload autofs:
# sudo /etc/init.d/autofs reload
6. Start gtkpod or just check out /media/ipod and witness the magic.

Thank you for the guide. I just applied first two and plugged iPod. It automounted. Rythmbox auto started. Do i still need to create a custom config for media. Cause you know it's working :)
I couldn't play files. I removed iPod from fstab, uninstalled aoutofs pmount. Now ipod is automounted, songs are playing, I can browse other partitions. Strange.ygyxr
Didn't work at all. Ipod shuffle still mounts as /media/NAMEOFIPOD rather than the specified location, and is mounted by the wrong user.
