If its just in terms of mounting I haven't tried amd yet, but if it does what I want, great ! What I was just wondering about originally was if there was an equivalent to the Linux "user" option in fstab (after having looked at the man page and not finding any on FreeBSD) > floppies you can just use mtools and nobody has to mount a thing :) True, but then again as you say, mtools is just for DOS floppies and won't work for data CDROM's etc..and I prefer a traditional UNIX mount myself :) I'll take a look at amd first and see..
