I have a digital camera which is a USB mass storage device. I emerged
hotplug and I am hoping it will do the work of automounting my
camera as /etc/camera somehow, but it is not clear from the man
page what I am supposed to do. I added hotplug to default runlevel and
started it. I can see my camera /proc/bus/usb/devices. I think I
have the needed modules loaded. Is there some doc that explains how
to make hotplug do it's thing? Is it required that I be using initrd?

First you may want to check the docs at the Linux documentation project at
http://www.tldp.org/docs.html

There is one on USB cameras at
