Re: "Operation not permitted" when mounting floppy or cdrom

FreeBSD 6.2. Recently installed will not permit user mount of floppy disk,

Any ideas welcomed...

Thanks

You don't have access to the /dev nodes. Make sure that your user has the ability to mount.

Make sure that this sysctl is also set to 1:

vfs.usermount: 1

If that doesn't work, then we'll have to get more info about the devices you're trying to mount (ls -l), what groups you're in, etc.
