devmon daemon and service of Debian package udevil could be a sustainable replacement solution of USBMount for USB key auto-mounting.

After installing udevil, as root, enable service:

systemctl enable devmon@moodlebox
systemctl start devmon@moodlebox
systemctl daemon-reload

Edit config file /etc/udevil/udevil.conf:

  • Add exfat and hfsplus at end of line allowed_types
  • Remove nonempty at end of line default_options_exfat of config file /etc/udevil/udevil.conf to fix exfat mounting errors
  • Add script to fix permissions on mounted folder at end of file, e.g. success_rootexec = /usr/local/bin/fix-mount-permissions.sh (or alternatively, create /media/moodlebox folder with correct permissions at installation)
