Hello,
I can't automatically mount USB drive on Debian Stretch minimal install. So far I've tried - pmount, udev and fstab and can't get any of these packages to mount my USB device.
Is there any other option that I could try out?

Re: Automount USB drive
I think, you can install file manager PcManFM. It is lightweight file manager, with automounting support.

I'm using this setup as a NAS server, therefore I need a simple solution to my mounting problem. I've tried out the suggested and still fails to automount USB devices.

Re: Automount USB drive
If the mount is defined with the "auto" option in /etc/fstab systemd *should* mount it whenever it is plugged in.
(With sysvinit the semantics were different: "auto" meant to try to mount it when booting).
So something like:
should work.
Note that I haven't tested it. I don't (want to) automount USB at all.

Re: Automount USB drive
I used this info when I ran rox-filer on it's own on my Dragora machines.

II think this is the thread that he refers to http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=114844&
I've since started using rox in conjunction with spacefm so udevil takes care of it now.
