...making Linux just a little more fun!

Hello,
I am working on an ARM based custom development board that has a Micro SD connector.
I use Linux (kernel version 2.6.24) on the board and I have support for the Micro SD cards. The SD driver has support for hotplug. At the bash prompt on the target board, I am able to mount the card, write data to it and read data from it. What utility do I need to add to the root file system for the card to be detected automatically when it's inserted and the file system on the card's media to be mounted to a specified mount point?
A couple of years ago, I was working with PCMCIA Flash memory cards and USB memory disks. There used to be a utility called Card Manager (cardmgr) that detects the insertion of a PCMCIA flash memory card and mounts it automatically. USB memory disks used to be automounted by the hotplug scripts. Is there any utility similar to this for SD/MMC/Micro SD cards?
Thanks in advance, Kanagesh
