Or is this maybe just a bug in Caldera 3.1 ?
Debian Sarge, kernel 2.4.20-pre10: no problems. Maybe kernel 2.4.2 is just too old and the mount option wasn't included in that kernel version. hmg1:~# mount -omy_own_new_option=1 /proc/bus/usb/ hmg1:~# mount [...] none on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,devmode=0666,my_own_new_option=1) Bye, Henning
