Back after some (actually a long) idle time... :) FTR: My host system is GNU/Linux and i found out that apart from unmounting the usb drive I also need to execute qemu with full privileges to make the device available. An example:
>sudo qemu -usb -usbdevice host:0e34:1025 plan9.img Now... It seems that I have a file permission problem. usbfat: /n/sdV0.0 touch /n/sdV0.0/a ... create prohibited I tried to access the drive both with glenda and the custom user that I added some time ago. ls -l says that the /n/sdV0.0 user is bill and the group trog Tried to log on as adm but rio fails to start (some settings are missing). I noticed that there is no user bill and group trog in /adm/users. Is this the next step?
