Disks for mounted file systems ... but the floppy disk was not mounted. Indeed, the problem was just that: I couldn't mount it. > 2 Highly secure mode - same as secure mode, plus disks may not be > opened for writing (except by mount(2)) whether mounted or not. > This level precludes tampering with file systems by unmounting > them, but also inhibits running newfs(8) while the system is multi- > user. I wasn't trying to open the diskette for writing. Even a read-only attempt to mount the diskette failed. If securelevel=3 prohibits mounting floppy disks, then the documentation should say something like "floppy disks cannot be mounted at this level." -- Anthony _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
