If you are looking for the serial number of a usb device, I find them at:
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb*/*/serial
NB that not all have them.

I use my own automounter scripts and udev with nice static mountpoints
from when udisks threw lots away for a while in favour of multiseat. A

Anyone knows how to dig into /sys to find the serial number of a device (say,
a USB pen)? I few days ago I found by trial and error something like
$ cat
/sys/devices/pci:00/:00:06.1/usb2/2-4/2-4:1.0/host13/target13:0:0/13:0:0:0/block/sdc/../../../../../serial
which gave me E68911000519
