automount usb disk changes w/FC5

greetings all.. I recently went from fc4 to fc5.. In fc4 when I inserted a usb flash drive I was able to exec .sh scripts from the drive itself by DEFAULT.. The DEFAULT for FC5 will not allow me to execute .sh scripts from a usb flash drive or any other usb drive types for that matter..

It seem they decided to change the default mount point for usb as well.. It used to be /media/usbdisk now it is /media/disk with a date of Jan 1 1970 (ugh!!)

IN FC5 my mtab has the line

/dev/sdc1 /media/disk vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,shortname=winnt,uid=500 0 0

after inserting a usb disk..

the noexec is what I believe to be what is preventing scripts from running, My question is how to change the default to ALLOW me the same functionality I had in fc4?

thanks in advance
