I'm trying to automount a usb to my raspberry pi, but I can't seem to get my udev rule to work.
The code I'm using is:
ACTION=="add", ENVID_MODEL=="Flash_Drive", RUN+="bin/mkdir /home/pi/heyimhere"
This doesn't work as no directory at that location is created as the flash drive is being plugged in.
I had luck using usb to shut down using the same rules, this time shutting it down using this line:
ACTION=="remove", ENVID_MODEL=="Flash_Drive", RUN+="sbin/shutdown -h now"
Which works - as soon as you remove the usb it shuts down.
Why? Should I use ATTR for add?

A udev rule is the wrong approach. You wantSYSTEMD_WANTS; seeman systemd.device.
