Re: persistence in freeBSD
Thanks for replying, Steve. As for your question, I mean if it is possible for example to write a file to the filesystem and that the file will not be deleted on the next boot. actually, I didn't succeed to write a file to the filesystem because it is automatically mounted as readonly filesystem, so my question implies also how to mount it also with write access during the boot process.

What does the '-u' option do? I've not find in the 'mount' man page any explanation on this option.

I'm currently looking at man mount on a FreeBSD 8.2 system and the following paragraph is readable: -u The -u flag indicates that the status of an already mounted file system should be changed.

The -u flag is referenced in other sections of the manpage. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
