   5 NAME
   6        rmmount - removable media mounter for CD-ROM, floppy, Jaz drive, and
   7        others
   8 
   9 SYNOPSIS
  10        /usr/sbin/rmmount [-D]
  11 
  12 
  13 DESCRIPTION
  14        The rmmount utility is a removable media mounter that is executed by
  15        volume management whenever a removable medium, such as a CD-ROM or a
  16        floppy, is inserted. Removable media is managed by an application or a
  17        volume manager. rmmount can also be called by using volrmmount(1).
  18 
  19 
  20        Upon insertion of a medium and following invocation of the volcheck(1)
  21        command, rmmount determines what type of file system (if any) is on
  22        that medium. If a file system is present, rmmount mounts the file
  23        system in one of the locations listed below.
  24 
  25 
  26        For a diskette (floppy):
  27 
  28        /floppy/floppy0
  29                                  symbolic link to mounted floppy in local
  30                                  floppy drive
  31 
  32 
  33        /floppy/floppy_name
  34                                  mounted named floppy
  35 
  36 
  37        /floppy/unnamed_floppy

 161 
 162 
 163        File systems mounted by rmmount are always mounted with the nosuid flag
 164        set, thereby disabling setuid programs and access to block or character
 165        devices in that file system. Upon ejection, rmmount unmounts mounted
 166        file systems and executes actions associated with the media type. If a
 167        file system is "busy" (that is, it contains the current working
 168        directory of a live process), the ejection will fail.
