Please consider to not mount /proc/bus/usb any more. It has been deprecated in favor of /dev/bus/usb long ago, which is much more flexible, configurable, and coherent to the spirit of /dev. Thanks, Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org)
* Do not mount usbfs any more, it was deprecated long ago. Applications should all use /dev/bus/usb, which can be managed more flexibly (assign permissions with udev, and the like). --- sysvinit-2.86.ds1/debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh 2008-05-28 18:23:56.000000000 +0200 +++ sysvinit-2.86.ds1.new/debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh 2008-05-28 18:27:12.000000000 +0200 @@ -59,21 +59,6 @@ domount tmpfs "" /var/lock varlock -omode=1777,nodev,noexec,nosuid$LOCK_OPT touch /var/lock/.ramfs fi - - # - # Mount usbfs/usbdevfs if /proc/bus/usb is present. - # - # Usbfs/usbdevfs is used for USB related binaries/libraries. - # "usbfs" and "usbdevfs" are the exact same filesystem. - # "usbdevfs" was renamed to "usbfs" by linux usb developers, - # because people sometimes mistook it as a part of devfs.
