>Description:
I noticed two typing errors in section 8.20 of the FreeBSD FAQ.
"8.20. How do I let ordinary users mount CD-ROMs, DVDs, USB drives, and other removable media?"
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/disks.html#idp67591856
Typo #1 is in the first example code snippet (the grey rounded box):
# Allow all users to mount a USB drive.
own /dev/da0 root:operator
perm /dev/da00 0666
The "perm" line should refer to "/dev/da0" instead of "/dev/da00", so there is an extra tailing 0 in the device name.
Typo #2 is in the brown command block following the above example:
% mkdir ~/my-mount-point
% mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0~/my-mount-point
Here, the "mount" line has one space less than it should. The space between "/dev/da0" and "~/my-mount-point" is missing.
>How-To-Repeat:
Not applicable.
>Fix:
Replace the line "perm /dev/da00 0666" with "perm /dev/da0 0666".
Replace the line " % mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0~/my-mount-point" with " % mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0~ /my-mount-point"
