On Linux, I use udev and autofs.

$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/50-custom.rules
BUS=="scsi", SYSFS{vendor}=="Pentax", NAME{all_partitions}="camera", GROUP="plugdev"
BUS=="scsi", SYSFS{vendor}=="Apple", NAME{all_partitions}="ipod", GROUP="plugdev"
BUS=="scsi", SYSFS{vendor}=="WDC WD80", NAME{all_partitions}="passport", GROUP="plugdev"

$ cat /etc/auto.master
/var/autofs/removable /etc/auto.removable --timeout=2

$ cat /etc/auto.removable
ipod -fstype=vfat,rw,gid=46,umask=002 :/dev/ipod1
camera -fstype=vfat,rw,gid=46,umask=002 :/dev/camera1
passport -fstype=ext3,rw :/dev/passport1
cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom
