autofs troubles

Hi,

I try to get my autofs working. I plug my usb-drive in and change into the mount directory (/media/misc).
It is empty (and if I mount the drive manually, it is not)!
mount shows me:

automount(pid15604) on /media/misc type autofs (rw,fd=4,pgrp=15604,minproto=2,maxproto=4)

This is my autofs.misc:

cd              -fstype=auto,iso9660,ro              :/dev/hdc
usbstick      -fstype=auto,async,nodev,nosuid,umask=000  :/dev/sdb1

And /etc/rc.d/autofs status:

Configured Mount Points:
------------------------
/usr/sbin/automount /media/misc file /etc/autofs/auto.misc 

Active Mount Points:
--------------------
/usr/sbin/automount --pid-file=/var/run/autofs/_:media_:misc.pid /media/misc file /etc/autofs/auto.misc

What could be wrong? Why can I not see my files?

Thanks!
Nathan

Re: autofs troubles

Why don't you use HAL?

Re: autofs troubles

I am not sure what you mean.

Mmh ... I do use hal.
At least it is in my DAEMONS variable and I get the start message, that it is started succesfully.
Hal is required for autofs, is it not?

I am confused, can hal do automounting by itself?
