This works. But how to come about this when I have setup some more > rules ? Can I add new lines e.g: > devfs_system_ruleset="devfsrules_cdrom" > devfs_system_ruleset="devfsrules_bar" > devfs_.... e.t.c. ? I'm not sure. If you want to add more rules to the set you can just add them under that same section. ie. [system=10] add path acd0 group operator add path acd0 mode 0660 add path 'da*' group operator add path 'da*' mode 0660 add path 'ugen*' group operator add path 'ugen*' mode 0660 add path 'ucom*' group operator add path 'ucom*' mode 0660
