I've been looking at the man pages for autofs and automount, and still
can't mount my usb drive automatically, under Fedora Core 7. I normally
mount it like this:
mount -t vfat -o rw,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,_netdev,utf8,owner,uid=fred
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb
I've started autofs and was playing with the auto.master file, but
nothing I tried worked. Can someone please tell me how to add this entry to the auto.master file, and have it mount automatically?

Works for me for four of them.
As for a manual mount
mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb
is sufficient. I presume it works the same for -t vfat.
