Re: Problems with 9.0 PowerPC images from main ftp site
It may have been the media I used. I was able to install from the releases on your FreeBSD repo page. I have an iMac G4 800MHz that is being used. Also, the firmware is at 3.X if that means anything.

Re: devd based AUTOMOUNTER
Hi, I removed the state_lock and stat_unlock mechanisms as they appeared to be not needed, I have shufled with 3 drives all the time and the 'integrity' has not been lost, at it was a lot faster, because the lock always had to wait for the 'slowest' drive (in term of initializing the device, like USB hard drive). I simplified the 'attach' section a lot, now each filesystem contains only check/fsck (if possible), mount and log info. I also simplified and improved the 'detach' section a little. I have added an option to automatically launch the set-up in config file manager (Yes, like in Windows ;p). These are options that I currently successfully use for NAUTILUS file manager, You need to set-up all three of them to make it work. | POPUP=YES | FM="nautilus --browser --no-desktop" | USER=vermaden My whole config looks like that now: | USERUMOUNT=YES | POPUP=YES | FM="nautilus --browser --no-desktop" | USER=vermaden | ENCODING=pl_PL.ISO8859-2 | CODEPAGE=cp852 All latest updates are available at GITHUB: https://github.com/vermaden/automount written by Freddie Cash ... > Konqueror (KDE 3.x and 4.x) and Dolphin (KDE 4.x mainly, but I > believe there's a KDE 3.x version) also show automatically > mounted and removable media in the sidebar.

New kernels and tinderboxes
Hi, can someone please point me to the place where I can see how files in the kernel config directories are handled in the tinderboxes? The background is, that I work on a modular kernel config which comes with an example-loader.conf (to have similar features than GENERIC). I would like to have the example-loader.conf as close as possible to the kernel config (so in my tree I currently have "SMALL" and "SMALL_loader.conf", suggestions how to handle this without causing problems in the tinderboxes are welcome).

This BUG is fixed, I was in wrong assumption, that the script would
be only executed for /dev/da0 but it was executed for every
device/partition node that appeared separately, like /dev/da0,
/dev/da0s1, /dev/da0s2 etc.
Currently there is no knows bugs, but the prepared earlier
'workaround functions' remain just in case.

Re: devd based AUTOMOUNTER
Hi,
new version with new features (and BUGs ;p)
Added check if ntfsfix from sysutils/ntfsprogs is available, if Yes then
try to fix the NTFS filesystem before mouting it.
Added GPL3 License ... just joking ;) ... added FreeBSD License to the file.
Added 'noatime' as a default mount option when possible.
Added TIMEOUT so when an 'orphan' STATE file lock remains, it will be deleted
after a TIMEOUT.
Added /usr/local/etc/devd/automount.devd file instead of messing with the base
system config at /etc/devd.conf.
Added config file to be used from /usr/local/etc/automount.conf file, possible
options are (these are defaults):
MNTPREFIX="/media"
LOG="/var/log/automount.log"
STATE="/var/run/automount.state"
ENCODING="en_US.ISO8859-1"
CODEPAGE="cp437"
DATEFMT="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
USERUMOUNT="NO"
Mine config currently has only these:
ENCODING="pl_PL.ISO8859-2"
CODEPAGE="cp852"
USERUMOUNT="YES"
The USERMOUNT otions if set to YES (default to NO) will 'chmod +s /sbin/umount',
so You can click the ^ button on the devices list in NAUTILUS.
These newly mounted devices appear on NAUTILUS sidebar (only with /media
prefix).
But THUNAR and PCMANFM does not do that, You know any other FMs that display
mounted thumb drives/devices?
EXAMPLE: http://i.imgur.com/qdKdl.png
First BUG: (not fixed yet, but workaround already is working)
TEST/BUG/CASE:
Plug in FAT32 and NTFS drives at the same time, when FAT32 device will be
detected first, it will get mounted and the NTFS drive will be mounted TWICE,
so I added __check_already_mounted function to check if it is not already
mounted.
Below are current script and config files.
