Atapicam is needed if you want to use cdrecord and growisofs (dvd+rw-tools). > hw.ata.atapi_dma=1 Mine says (note the quotes); hw.ata.atapi_dma="1" > vfs.usermount=1 This should be in /etc/sysctl.conf Don't forget that this is not sufficient you mount stuff as a normal user; - you need read/write permissions to the device - and you need to _own_ the mount point. > ========== > > ++ /etc/rc.conf > devd_enable=YES By default, devd doesn't do anything usefull with CD/DVD devices, AFAICT. I'm not sure what you need this for. > ++ /etc/devfs.conf > > link acd0 cdrom > perm /dev/acd0 0666 Looks OK. I've got the following in devfs.conf, to use the CD/DVD burner as a pseudo SCSI device (atapicam in kernel, but not atapicd); # Give members of group cdrom access to the CD/DVD-ROM and DVD+RW via the # SCSI interface own xpt0 root:cdrom perm xpt0 0660 own cd0 root:cdrom perm cd0 0660 own cd1 root:cdrom perm cd1 0660 link cd0 cdrom link cd0 dvd The following is in /etc/devfs.rules; add path 'pass*' mode 0660 group cdrom IIRC I did this because pass devices are created as needed. My kernel config has the following devices (among others); device ata device atadisk # ATA disk srives device ataraid # RAID drives device atapicam # Emulate ATAPI devices as SCSI via CAM options ATA_STATIC_ID # Static device numbering # SCSI peripherals device scbus # SCSI bus (required for SCSI) device cd # Compact Disc device da # Direct Access (disks) device pass # Passthrough device (direct SCSI access) HTH, Roland -- R.F.Smith http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/ [plain text _non-HTML_ PGP/GnuPG encrypted/signed email much appreciated] pgp: 1A2B 477F 9970 BA3C 2914 B7CE 1277 EFB0 C321 A725 (KeyID: C321A725)
