RW access
to floppy is broken in TDE
Access to devices is controlled by the linux kernel, it has nothing to do with TDE or any
DE for that matters
Access is controlled by udisks or from /etc/fstab! :)
And udisks directly mounts floppy only in RO.
And when you write a record about floppy in /etc/fstab, TDE uses direct mounting by call
mount for it, and that is wrong
work also for userspace.
Then I just disabled the direct mounting at a record in /etc/fstab, so TDE is using
udisks for that and udisks reads /
etc/fstab and mounts RW in userspace correctly in this way.
User programs simply don't have direct access
to any physical device in linux, it all happens through kernel system
calls and the kernel is the solely responsible piece of code for reading/writing to any
device.
Do you think I have no real old device to test such behavior? :)
Hi Roman,
I suggest you take an Operating System class before you write some comments, it may save
you some embarrassment :-)
Cheers
