Fixed devices are controlled by /etc/vfstab, you may want
to not mount them, or mount them either read-write or read-only.

I mean automounting triggered by plugging in a USB device.
You plug in the device, it mounts without having to determine
its device patch, which depends on the USB socket you have used.

Why would you plug dynamically on a running system an ntfs
device which you would not want to mount ?
