I understand the motivation for "mount -t auto"....I wanted to get away from hijacking the "-t" parameter with values other than an "fstype". Also, if someone implements the autofs file system again for FreeBSD, there could be confusion. My tack for dealing with POLA was to always start with UFS when iterating through the vfs.conflist sysctl. I thought that having it as the default behavior if "-t" is not specified would be nice, especially for people coming from Linux. When I moved from Linux to FreeBSD, I found it a bit weird that I needed to specify a "-t" parameter to mount my CD-ROM...and figuring out that it was -t cd9660, which is not the same as Linux was odd too. :) -- Craig Rodrigues rodrigc_at_crodrigues.orgReceived on Fri Jan 19 2007 - 01:55:23 UTC
