Hotplug-NG (Greg Kroah-Hartmann's project) basically evolved into udev. Udev,
just like original hotplug-ng, is 2.6 only.

Yes, that is a significant nuisance; the old hotplug scripts wouldn't work with
eg. busybox (unless you modify them slightly), or at least I failed to do so.

I hope I'll offend noone if I suggest my work for this; it can do exactly what
you need: it can work with 2.4 kernels, you can write rules (so with adequate
rules, you should be able to perform automounting)... I didn't test it on ARM
(having no box with ARM at my disposal), but I'm absolutely willing to patch it
according to your needs and suggestions...
