    Concerning recent releases of Free- and OpenBSD, isn't that time to start thinking about new icon? NetBSD changed their symbol lately to orange flag and because two other BSD's use the same logo as Net, maybe it's time to put this flag on /.?

    Unfortunately it requires that you predefine your device via a mount conf file or a hotplug script.

    Until someone ports hald and possibly dbus to *BSD, hotplug really doesnt help all that much. It simply automounts devices that you already knew about.
