hi,
Any partition on a removable media belongs to the wrong group.
Happens because of nonmatching rule: permissions.rules line 3
/dev/sdf is a usbstick
/dev/sdf has the right group
# l /dev/sdf
brw-rw---- 1 root floppy 8, 80 2005-08-06 17:41 /dev/sdf
but /dev/sdf1 belongs to the wrong group:
# l /dev/sdf1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 81 2005-08-06 17:41 /dev/sdf1
the source of the problem is this line in permission.rules:
SUBSYSTEM="block", SYSFS{removable}="1", GROUP="floppy"
udevinfo -a -p `udevinfo -q path -n /dev/sdf1`
device '/sys/block/sdf/sdf1' has major:minor 8:81
looking at class device '/sys/block/sdf/sdf1':
SUBSYSTEM="block"
SYSFS{dev}="8:81"
SYSFS{size}="501149"
SYSFS{start}="99"
SYSFS{stat}=" 379 379 0 0"
because if sdf is removable, sdf1 should be so also. So there
is no need for an attribute removable in sdf (imho).
cu,
Michael Gebetsroither
