Synopsis: non-root mount operation fails State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: maxim State-Changed-When: Fri Apr 14 14:47:49 UTC 2006 State-Changed-Why: Non-root mount works OK on several desktop system I have. Please ask questions in the appropriate maillists. Basically you need (this is actually FAQ http://tinyurl.com/ns9p7): 1. As root load all filesystem specific kernel code (compiled in the kernel, loaded as module at startup etc). 2. Put vfs.usermount=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf. 3. Make sure you are an owner of the mount point. 4. Make sure you have an approriate permissions for the device you mount. E.g. for iPod partition I have: /boot/loader.conf ... msdosfs_load="YES" /etc/sysctl.conf ... vfs.usermount=1 /etc/fstab: ... /dev/da0s2 /ipod msdos rw,noauto 0 0 /etc/devfs.rules ... add path da0s* mode 660 add path da0s* user maxim $ ls -ld /ipod drwxr-xr-x 3 maxim wheel 512 Apr 1 17:52 /ipod http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=87877
