I've got my Slackware installation almost the way I want it, but I'm a few steps away.
I used some udev rules to point my devices to precisely where I'd like them. In particular, I have devices
/dev/cruzer_micro_256,
/dev/jumpdrive_128, and
/dev/lexar_sd_512.
So I began writing my autofs rules, following this page closely:
http://www.greenfly.org/tips/usb_drive.html I got this far through my udev rules.
/etc/auto.master

The author of the above tutorial also has written a bash script
/etc/hotplug/usb/usb-storage to symlink his devices where he'd like them. I'm not worried about that yet, although I'll make an attempt at that when I get the autofs working.
From what I understand, as soon as I access
/var/autofs/removable, any devices that are attached should be mounted. So if my jumpdrive is plugged in,
/var/autofs/removable/jumpdrive should be created. But this isn't the case. The devices themselves do work if I mount them manually, so I know there's a problem in the autofs process--can someone help?
