Once scsi_da found the media, it would then somehow need to : notify devd (i.e. to automount). If both functions are in devd, the : loop becomes: : : while (1) { : camcontrol tur mydev; : if (found) : notify_automount; : break; : sleep 3; : } This doesn't belong in devd. Robert has patches to bring new geom entries into the realm of devd. WarnerReceived on Mon Jul 02 2007 - 03:32:18 UTC
