Hello everyone, Can a ordinary user on a FBSD 2.2.2 system mount a 1.44M floppy drive. (I read somewhere that it's not allowed?). If it can be done, I'm sure running out of idea why as root I can, but not as anybody else. All attempts return: mount_msdos /dev/fd0.1440 /mnt (or mount -t msdos ...) mount_msdos: /dev/fd0.1440: Operation not permitted I can't remember if I ever had this work before and am not sure if incorrect permissions are causing problems (a couple chown|grps -R 's got away from me). I've tried all kinds of permission combos on /dev, /dev/fd0*, /sbin/, /sbin/mount, and /sbin/mount_msdos without any success. Thanks for any light on this! Gerard Giamberdine
