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
