Hello, after some digging I think I found the problem in the function sysfs_get_device_parent() of libsysfs1. If called by pmount it alway returns NULL.
I think this is because it tries to get the parent by removing the last part of the pathname. To make sure that it really gets a device it checks for the presence of "/detach_state". But there is no file called detach_state in my entire /sys! Maybe this is somehow related to http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/5/17/234 . And here for reference the code libsysfs is executing (sysfs_device.c:610): | /* | * All "devices" have the "detach_state" attribute - validate here | */ | safestrcat(ppath, "/detach_state"); | if ((sysfs_path_is_file(ppath)) != 0) { | dprintf("Device at %s does not have a parent\n", dev->path); | return NULL; | } Daniel
