usbmount Alternatives
usbmount is described as 'The USBmount Debian package automatically mounts USB mass storage devices (typically USB pens) when they are plugged in, and unmounts them when they are removed. The mountpoints (/media/usb[0-7] by default), filesystem types to consider, and mount options are configurable'. There are seven alternatives to usbmount for Linux and Windows. The best alternative is Gmount ISO, which is free. Other great apps like usbmount are mountall (Free, Open Source), pmount (Free, Open Source), gISOmount (Free, Open Source) and mount-gtk (Free, Open Source).
- GMount ISO is a simple tool for Linux that facilitates mounting ISO images as a virtual drive. GMount ISO is a frontend to the mount command and is written using PyGTK and Glade. Virtual disc access rate is about 200 times faster than that of a physical disc.
