vfs.usermount=1

acd


/etc/devfs.conf

...
...
own     acd0    root:users
perm    acd0    0660

$ killasmurf86# ls -l /dev | grep da
crw-rw----  1 root          users       0,  96 Oct 22 08:01 da0

i'd really love to have auto in /etc/fstab

You can extract the usb filesystem from fdisk command

Thanks killasmurf86, J65nko


I too did it.

Should not tell this but I was editing /etc/devfs.conf instead of /etc/devfs.rules. damn tab key.

I tried everything as it is written, only change group to wheel, but it still shows the error "DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed: An operation is already pending". In Nautilus I see all partitions but can not access to them, and with root everything works fine.
