* Paul Murphy: > I _can_ read/write to it as root, but I would really like to use it > as a non-root user. Any thoughts as to why this is happening? See FreeBSD FAQ[1]. Also, in /etc/fstab you may adjust the mode, see below -m700 for msdos filesystem: /dev/da0s1 /mnt/usbkey msdos rw,-m700,noauto 0 0 If /dev is mounted via devfs (FreeBSD 5), you may want to edit /etc/devfs.conf and add a line like below: perm da0s1 0666 Cheers, -- Jean-Baptiste Quenot http://caraldi.com/jbq/ [1] http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/disks.html#USER-FLOPPYMOUNT
