mount -p seems to be broken in FreeBSD7 $ mount ... /dev/mirror/gm0s1g on /spool (ufs, local, noatime, nosuid, soft-updates) $ mount -p ... /dev/mirror/gm0s1g /spool ufs nosuid,noatime 2 2 If nosuid,noatime without rw option written to /etc/fstab system can't mount /spool on startup. On FreeBSD6 mount -p work fine: $ mount -p ... /dev/mirror/gm0s1g /spool ufs rw,nosuid,noatime 2 2 -- WBR, Anton Yuzhaninov
