Hi All: This is week 3 on a new freebsd 6.1 install. I LOVE it! I am having a silly problem using my floppy drive. I can successfully fdformat a new floppy, I can newfs it, I can mount it OK.... what I can not do is write to it! My fstab line is: /dev/fd0 /usr/home/bob/floppy ufs rw,noauto,user 0 0 After a format, lable, and newfs, I can: "mount -t ufs /dev/fd0 /home/bob/floppy" ok. The permissions on mount-point /home/bob/floppy are 770 with bob:bob After the mount operation I see: ls -al floppy drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Aug 7 11:22 . drwxr-xr-x 60 bob bob 4096 Aug 7 11:03 .. drwxrwxr-x 2 root operator 512 Aug 7 11:22 .snap And of course, bob can only read, but not write. $ touch floppy/test touch: floppy/test: Permission denied How can I correct the post-mount permissions? TIA Bob
