USB devices can be automatically mounted by uncommenting this line in /etc/auto_master:
/media -media -nosuid
Then add these lines to /etc/devd.conf:
notify 100 {
match "system" "GEOM";
match "subsystem" "DEV";
action "/usr/sbin/automount -c";
};
Thanks for your reply, ericbsd: well, I was going to try and upload a .jpg screenshot to show you the msg I get when I try and mount a USB drive in Caja, but apparently, the forum here doesn't accept .jpg file uploads [Screenshot at 2017-07-11 18:20:34.jpg is an invalid filename.] , so here is the error msg I get:
"mount illegal option -m usage: mount [- t fstype [-o option] target_fs mount_point"
Hello Mike
Use a hosting image server (such as Tinypic) to upload the image. Then paste here the code generated automatically by the host
So we can see your image
Cheers
What is the file system on the usb stick? I can mount UFS usb sticks no problem, but if the file system is ms-dos it has to be mounted by command line.

Sorry the image cut off half the picture--the original screencapture didn't do that--it was full screen. Never used a 'hosting' service for pics before.
