Hi Roland, >Around 2010 I wrote the manual pages devfs.conf(5) and devfs.rules(5). AFAIK they are still up to date. If something is missing or unclear, please submit a PR. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Ddevfs.rules&sektion=3D5&n=3D1 Example shows: [localrules=3D10] http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/usb-disks.html This example shows:[localrules=3D5] What's the difference between the two? > Roland Thanks, Jungle On 31 March 2014 09:48, Roland Smith <rsmith@xs4all.nl> wrote: > On Sun, Mar 30, 2014 at 10:39:49PM +0100, Anton Shterenlikht wrote: > > Hi > > > > I followed the handbook, sec, 18.5.
