Even though Debian also has hotplug, I found it much easier to use a package called usbmgr. I don't know if RH has it, but even if it doesn't, I suggest to look at it.

Why don't you add a simple test like [ -s ] or [ -d ] for a file or dir that are exist on this DiskOnKey, then you know if it is plugged (file/dir exist) or unplugged (does not).

running a user-defined script with hotplug
Hi List, I have RH73 that uses hotplug to monitor the usb and load modules when needed, and it works fine. However, I would like to run a script whenever I insert my DiskOnKey to the usb socket, and another one (well, it could be the smae one but with another arg) when I unplug it. man hotplug and google did not tell me the answer to my simple question. Please don't suggest to rewrite /etc/hostplug/usb.agent. This is not what I'm looking for.
