Hey Guys:

With 2.4.20 and 2.6.9 I had all this automated so everything just
happened automatically. It's not working with 2.6.16.16 now. What am
I
missing or what did I forget?

What version of udev and hal are you using?

What specific errors are you having?

thanks,

It 'looks' like I have the latest? I'm not getting any "errors". But
with RH7.3/2.4.20 and FC3/2.6.9 inserting a CD or USB Flash drive
mounted automatically. I upgraded to 2.6.16.16 on the previously
working FC3 machines and now it doesn't --- so I'm sure I missing
something in the kernel configuration and just don't know what it
is!?!?!

Old udev. That one is the latest in fc3. The latest udev is 098, in rawhide there is 095.
Old hal. The latest is 0.5.7.1, in rawhide there is also that version.

Redhat doesn't seem to support old releases too much (fc3 in this case), try to upgrade to fc6 test or fc5, or at least
yum --enablerepo=development update hal udev
or something like that.
