the demo pool is a file on the machine's builtin ssd-backed zpool, I discovered the fact on a sdcard while researching https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/zfs-automount-removable-media.99842/. So this seems unrelated. I'd be curious if you can freeze your machine, too.

Probably worthwhile to also explore autofs(5). It's a component to automount disks. The devd daemon is responsible to propage events like "a USB drive has been inserted", so yes, a devd rule seems a good idea. notify 100 { match "system" "DEVFS"; match "subsystem" "CDEV"; match...

I'd like to format SD-cards and USB-thumb drives with zfs. When plugged-in I'd like them to automatically mount read-only, so that I can carelessly pull them out again. I guess I need a devd rule with zfs import/export and rmdir. Is there somebody here doing similar? How do you?

I have nine iocage jails on a host that are all started when the host is booted. They all automount their filesystems. I run zrepl on the host but not on the jails and have no problem pushing snapshots to the sink or pruning stale snapshots. I will take a look at my config on Monday.

...but never had this particular issue and the SSD T7 backup device, but now, only available when logged into root. I've always been able to automount it in user. Not any more. Here is the dmesg message after removing the SSD T7: ugen0.8: <Samsung PSSD T7> at usbus0 (disconnected) umass0: at...

The automount attempt causes this error (linux side):

That is how MTP works - after 1st attach phone/USB device is visible but you can not mount anything - this is the time you are asked on the phone screen if you want to share the files - then You agree and this '1st' device disappears and new '2nd' device appears with mount option ... but it does...

...file transfer, a few seconds after, it would unmount or detach by itself. What could be the problem? here is the log: $ tail /var/log/automount.log 2025-09-14 09:55:31 /dev/ugen0.5: mount OK: 'simple-mtpfs --device 1 /media/ugen0.5 -o allow_other -o uid=0 -o gid=0' 2025-09-14 09:55:31...

Thanks for letting me know that it is now available in different category ... for whatever reason - I did not got any notification that the category will change ...

Note that version 1.7.9 of automount(8) is available as filesystems/automount (moved from sysutils/automount as of creation of filesystems physical category).

You can also try my automount(8) alternative - https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2018/10/11/freebsd-desktop-part-17-automount-removable-media/ - more info here.

Thanks, tied all suggestions, but did not help, still "not authorized" May be its all i did install freebsd from FreeBSD-14.3-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso but not FreeBSD-14.3-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso ?

I'm using filesystems/automount to mount non-default media, so not sure it works or not, but does here help?

...configs. Changes to that post: kde4 line is obviously outdated. hald is not needed, you’ll need sysutils/automount, sysutils/bsdisk and devel/kf6-solid add vfs.usermount=1 to /etc/sysctl.conf My /etc/devfs.rules [devfsrules_common=7] add path 'ad[0-9]\*' mode 666 add path 'ada[0-9]\*'...

Hi there, So, after reading some threads, I found this one: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/dsbmd-a-media-mounting-daemon-automounter-for-freebsd.63534/ I followed the instructions, and I can now automount/mount my phone on computer without being a root user. However, there is an issue. I am...

You can open your own thread and ask for help to whatever problem you have, it's simpler ;)

...Therefore I usually go for XFCE. But I agree the 4.20 is a bit heavy. Maybe I try LXQT. But I will miss Settings, Whisker menu and Thor(automount). And when global menu plugin works, it is the best - but sadly I can't make it work on FreeBSD. I tried the new Enlightenment and it is a) error...

I've been using automountd since my SunOS 4, Solaris, and Tru64 days. I cut my teeth on those early Sun and DEC systems. This is also why I use CDE. The DEC Alpha 3000 (later 4000) on my desk had CDE as its desktop environment. Old habits die hard.

Myself I don't like automount because it defaults to read-write access. I don't want to touch the filesystem until I need to.
