I recently bought an M-Systems 128 Mb Disk-On-Key (version 2.51). When I plug this into the USB port of a Linux computer that has never been used with this device before, it seems to create a directory '/mnt/diskonkey'. The directory never existed before. It disappears when you unmount and then unplug the disk key. looking at /var/log/messages shows the disk key being registered as a USB mass storage device. But there is nothing about it creating directories on my system. How can this be done? Users other than root can't create files on /mnt. How did my disk key suddenly get root access? By the way, the disk key works great. I currently have the kernel-source-2.4.18-17.8.0 rpm on it It's nice to be able to hot plug a disk into a machine and copy over needed files. I just wish I could boot off one of these. Thanks Bob Cochran Greenbelt, Maryland, USA -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
