I followed the wiki at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Udev
I created a new file /etc/udev/rules.d/10-usb-automount.rules and pasted this
KERNEL=="sd[a-z]", NAME="%k", SYMLINK+="usbhd-%k", GROUP="users", OPTIONS="last_rule"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[a-z][0-9]", SYMLINK+="usbhd-%k", GROUP="users", NAME="%k"

ACTION=="remove", KERNEL=="sd[a-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/rm -f /media/usbhd-%k"I also changed sd[a-z] to sd[d-z] as I already have another SATA hard disk ntfs partition automounted at boot.
I restarted the computer but the external hard disk still mount mount automatically. I had to manually mount it using root to do it.

Bump ... Same question here, usb sticks are automounted, but the NTFS external drive is not.
Here is my udev rule:
KERNEL=="sd[b-z]", NAME="%k", SYMLINK+="usb-%k", GROUP="users", OPTIONS="last_rule"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", SYMLINK+="usb-%k", GROUP="users", NAME="%k"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/mkdir -p /media/usb-%k"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/ln -s /media/usb-%k /mnt/usb-%k"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", PROGRAM=="/lib/udev/vol_id -t %N", RESULT=="vfat", RUN+="/bin/mount -t vfat -o rw,noauto,flush,quiet,nodev,nosuid,noexec,noatime,dmask=000,fmask=111 /dev/%k /media/usb-%k", OPTIONS="last_rule"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", PROGRAM=="/lib/udev/vol_id -t %N", RESULT=="ntfs", RUN+="/bin/mount -t ntfs-3g -o users,noauto,uid=1000,gid=100,fmask=0113,dmask=0002 /dev/%k /media/usbhd-%k", OPTIONS="last_rule"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/mount -t auto -o rw,noauto,sync,dirsync,noexec,nodev,noatime /dev/%k /media/usb-%k", OPTIONS="last_rule"
ACTION=="remove", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/rm -f /mnt/usb-%k"
ACTION=="remove", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/umount -l /media/usb-%k"
ACTION=="remove", KERNEL=="sd[b-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/rmdir /media/usb-%k", OPTIONS="last_rule"When i mount the drive manually with the ntfs-3g command above everything is ok

Anyone has an idea ??

I had to mount vfat partitions manually if I use the udev trick from the wiki. But vfat partitions are mounted automatically if no udev trick is used.
Only ntfs partitions do not mount automatically now.
