Default Mount / Unmount usb drive
Hello,

I have found a way to unmount a usb drive, using KwikDisk (included in the PCBSD package). However, the only way I have found to mount to usb drive is to reboot. I am sure that there is a better way, but I can't find it. Anyone can tell me how?

Thanks!

Press right mouse button on flash drive icon and select unmount.

For me, anyway, USB drives just automount when I insert them? What version of PC-BSD are you using? You might have to play some games with usbd.conf and the devfs.rules files.

The only time mine does not automount is if it's plugged in before the Desktop has been loaded for a few sec. At least on a laptop/desktop without any major ACPI problems..
