^^^^
This will not make the auto-mounter daemon happen; rather, it will cause
the system to try to mount /dev/umass-device at boot time. If the umass
device is not connected at boot time, the system will need manual
intervention in order to boot. Probably not what the OP wants. Besides,
auto is the default anyway.
