[autofs] autoumount USB devices not working

[basj]

I tried at least 10 times to install (+remove and reinstall), modify configuration files, etc. but autofs currently doesn't work for automounting USB sticks / SD cards.

I decided to investigate more, by testing on a fresh new ArchLinuxArm install. Here are the steps I did (I mainly followed https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Autofs) :

1) Fresh new ArchLinuxArm install from http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinux ... est.tar.gz

2) Login as root from ssh

3) $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -Sy autofs')

4) nano /etc/autofs/auto.master
I let like it is by default:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', ' /misc /etc/autofs/auto.misc')

5) nano /etc/autofs/auto.misc
I add this line:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', ' usbstick -fstype=auto,async,nodev,nosuid,umask=000 :/dev/sda1')
or later, I also tried with:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', ' usbstick -fstype=auto :/dev/sda1')

(I double-checked: it is /dev/sda1, I can mount it manually and it works.)


6) systemctl start autofs

7) Insert a SD card in the reader. Nothing happens. (I can mount it manually with "mount /dev/sda1 /misc", then it works. But autofs doesn't do the job)

Have I forgotten something / done something wrong?
