so about:
>> Q1. is there a daemon i have to run explicitly on moblin on startup?
yes there is a devkit-disks-deamon which i do not have installed on my
target platform. Once it is installed i assume it would work. I
assume, because I did not install it, but killed this deamon on my
development machine and it did not work as well.
At the end i decided to work with udev and dbus signals and because
per default the staorage devices will not be mounted automatically i
can mount them myself in the udev.rules  to where I want to :)

>> Q2. or maybe GVolumeMonitor is not going to work on moblin at all?
as a part og GIO it is going to work.

cheers
