Hi all:
I want use "removeable disk" with freebsd for backup, and I don't like ntfs or fat, so I formated the disk following this page:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disks-adding.html

The result is: :e
Code: 
ls /dev/ | grep -i da
da0
da0s1
da0s1c
da0s1d
da0s1e
da0s1f
da0s1g
To prevent hald mount this disk to /media directory(I use gnome), I touch these files in /usr/local/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/ directory. Thank SirDice very much :e
Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="freebsd.driver" string="ohci">
        <merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>
Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="freebsd.driver" string="ehci">
        <merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>

Finaly, I can mount one of the partitions to /mnt/fender, but I can't touch anything. :(
Code: 
$ mount /dev/da0s1e /mnt/fender/
$ cd /mnt/fender/
$ pwd
/mnt/fender
$ touch something
touch: something: Permission denied

How to solve it?
 
A newly created filesystem will have root:wheel as owner/group.

Change the owner/group of the mounted filesystem to the user/group you want to use. Also make sure that user/group has the correct permissions.

chown and chmod are the commands to use.
 
I am sorry,I must apologize, because these file can't config hald to prevent mount the disk, but I don't know why it work when I test it last time, and I added another file to that directory, but this file also donsen't work.
Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="freebsd.driver" string="uhub">
      <merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>
I think I need config the hald properly first. :(
 
haha

Seems solved, the following file can config hald to prevent mount the disk, and I changed the disk permession.

:e

Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="freebsd.driver" string="da">
      <merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>
 
Do realize that this will prevent HAL from automounting any usb hd or memory stick.

It might be worthwhile to look up the UUID for your drive with lshal and only prevent probing that one.
 
Yes, I know it will prevent every usb device, and that is I want, I prefer to use the freebsd's traditional way to mount the flash disk.
