Thanks for your answers!
That's not exactly what I want - I thought about to plug e.g. an
usb-stick into my machine, let it mount via amd and after I detach the
device from my machine amd should umount the devices automatically.
Is this possible?
AFAIR bad things happen when a mounted usb-devices disappears...
