I have tried both developers and porters handbooks but havent found info what to do to 'commit' this as a port, should I just submit a PR? > Unfortunately, I spent a few days that would > have to understand how it is possible to > detect the inserted CD-ROM with devd; but > alas - the only thing that detects changes > in the drive CD-ROM - a :sysctl kern.geom.conftxt > > before inserting the disc: > kern.geom.conftxt: 0 DISK cd0 0 2048 hd 0 sc 0 > ... > > after inserting the disc: > kern.geom.conftxt: 0 DISK cd0 4700372992 2048 hd 0 sc 0 Thanks, at least we have 'something' we can cepend on. I can create an 'active wait' daemon for that, like the skel below: while sleep 3 do case $( sysctl -n kern.geom.conftxt ) in (0 DISK cd0 0 2048 hd 0 sc 0) echo "No CD in the drive ..." # umount procedure ... ;; (0 DISK cd0 * * hd 0 sc 0) echo "We have CD here!" # do something about it lile mount_cd9660 ;; esac done But a devd(8) event would be far better, maybe some somple commit to devd(8) would help here? My knowledge does not allow me to add these bits to devd(8). Regards, vermaden
