I mount the diskette by this command: # mount -t msdos -o noexec /dev/fd0 /mnt Then I access the files as usually, but a bit later or at umount'ing - BOOM! Diskette was accidentally write-protected! The system hangs up or reboot! Few seconds before it has happened the kernel is complains that the blocks cannot be written. Afterward computer stop responding.Without panic and without any chances to stop the fatal activity. I use FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE, cvsup'ed at 08.04.2000. Two neighbor computers with similar configuration has the same behaviour. The diskette has no bad blocks and is only write-protected. How I can fix this? Any suggestions? I want to install the amd automounter, but with it anyone can hang or reboot my system!
