I just upgraded to 5.1-RELEASE last night. I have a Jungsoft Nexdisk USB
memory stick that is being successfully recognized. Since I want the
memory stick to be usable by users of group operator, I need the
/dev/da0s1 device to be mode 0664. Then they can mount the device on
one of their own directories (via vfs.usermount=1).
Advertising
Under 5.0, I used rc.devfs to add a ruleset to devfs using the following
commands. This worked fine:
ruleset 99
rule add path da0s1 mode 664
rule -s 99 applyset
Under 5.1 I tried doing a similar action with devfs.conf:
perm da0s1 0664
This does not work, and after looking over rc.d/devfs, I realized that
this only works for devices present at boot time, and not for umass
devices inserted later.
Is there an accepted means of adding a ruleset using the new rc system?
Is there another way of doing what I want? I understand that rc.devfs
is deprecated, so I don't really want to use it unless I have to.
Thanks,
David
