I was using spaceFm but I decided to try Nemo file Browser. With spacefm automounting was available. Now with Nemo file browser It is not. Also as a next step I want to configure the system to mount ( or link) the removable devices to Desktop.
I started reading about AutoFs here . Here is my auto.misc file
#
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# Details may be found in the autofs(5) manpage
cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom
usbstick -fstype=auto,async,nodev,nosuid,umask=000 :/dev/sdb1
# the following entries are samples to pique your imagination
#linux -ro,soft,intr [url=ftp://ftp.example.org]ftp.example.org[/url]:/pub/linux
#boot -fstype=ext2 :/dev/hda1
#floppy -fstype=auto :/dev/fd0
#floppy -fstype=ext2 :/dev/fd0
#e2floppy -fstype=ext2 :/dev/fd0
#jaz -fstype=ext2 :/dev/sdc1
and auto.master file
#
# Sample auto.master file
# This is a 'master' automounter map and it has the following format:
# mount-point [map-type[,format]:]map [options]
# For details of the format look at auto.master(5).
#
/media/misc /etc/autofs/auto.misc
#/var/autofs/removable /etc/autofs/auto.autoremovable
#
# NOTE: mounts done from a hosts map will be mounted with the
# "nosuid" and "nodev" options unless the "suid" and "dev"
# options are explicitly given.
#
/net -hosts
#
# Include /etc/autofs/auto.master.d/*.autofs
# The included files must conform to the format of this file.
#
+dir:/etc/autofs/auto.master.d
#
# Include central master map if it can be found using
# nsswitch sources.
#
# Note that if there are entries for /net or /misc (as
# above) in the included master map any keys that are the
# same will not be seen as the first read key seen takes
# precedence.
#
+auto.master
How can I configure Autofs? Is this thing related to Autofs or not?Do I have to remove other similar utilities like udisks?
thanks

It might be easier to use udiskie for this job, as it requires no configuration.
Just install it and then enable it using systemctl.
