Unique names for UMS devices in /media/



Hey guys,

I have several different USB Mass Storage devices (cameras, MP3 players,
memory sticks and removable hard drives). All of them are correctly
mounted in /media/ as 'usbdisk' or something similar.

What I would like, though, is for each one to have its own directory
name. For example, my mp3 player to come up as '/media/iriver' and my
camera to come up as /media/fujifilm' or something like that.

I know this can be done on some level, but I'm not sure how deep I have
to go. Whether it's something to do with HAL, or udev, or somewhere else.

What do I need to do to get this working?

Thanks,

Tom
