I'm new to the list. Ive been trying to mount usb devices. After
the first
time, which was successful, I've been getting the following:
If you are using the dbus service, the usual case with OI, USB devices
get mounted automatically. You don't have to do anything. The FMRI
of that service is svc:/system/dbus:default .
I see I made a mistake in this message. It's the hal service that
mounts USB devices automatically. The FMRI is:
svc:/system/hal:default
This service is present on all my OI systems, but then I installed
them initially with the GUI installer. I don't know if the hal
service is installed by the text installer.
And why is it restricted to vfat ? External usb disks are factory
formatted as ntfs, which is more suitable for OS-agnostics
backups. Automatic mounting Exfat devices would also be useful.
This would alleviate the pain of having to determine the path
assigned to the device after plugging it in, even if I do not
mind having to issue a mount command.
I ported "blkid" from Linux for alleviating the pain (sorry
for the taboo), and keep away from the dangerous "format" way.

Hi!
I use sudo DISKINFO to determine the devicename of the thumb drive:
$ sudo diskinfo
TYPE DISK VID PID SIZE RMV SSD
SCSI c14t0d0 Intenso Business Line 58.59 GiB
no no
One thing to think of would be to integrate exfat support via fusefs in
OI...
Greetings,
Stephan
