This adds -media autofs map. It's supposed to be used with removable
media. Note that there is a known deficiency in that it never removes
obsolete nodes; it will be addressed later.

| 215–216 | Hm, but it's not the volumes that are mounted on /net, it's the map - volumes are somewhere underneath it. What do you think about the updated patch? | |

| 217 | Phabricator might not be showing the actual diff, so bear with me. I see This map is traditionally mounted on Does "traditionally" mean "by default", or "what most people do"? I suspect it is the first, so this can be split out of the too-long following sentence: By default, this map is mounted on nfs-server-ip and share-name need markup to show they are not literal, although I have not yet found out what to use. | |

| 16 | Ugh. I'd make the comment a bit stronger with an XXX as you did below - e.g. XXX this should use kern.geom.conftxt, but it lacks access counts. Looking for hexagon in the dot output makes me feel really icky. That said, you could simplify slightly with sysctl ... | sed -n 's/^.*hexagon,label=/../p' i.e. -n and /p modifier | |
| 34 | can you expand on the comment | |
| usr.sbin/autofs/auto_master.5 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 217 | "Traditionally" here means "what our ancestors used to do". It's not mounted anywhere by default - it's commented out - but by removing a single "#" you can mount it where it used to be on Solaris and most other UNIX systems. And OS X. | |

The doc changes look good to me. I still would prefer that nfs-server-ip and share-name are shown as non-literal values. The only way I know to do that would be rewriting that section to split up the path as shown below. Is it worth that? I'm not sure.
Access to files on a remote NFS server is provided through the
.Pa /net
directory.
Inside that directory are subdirectories for each NFS server IP address (WB: or host name?)
and the exported directories.
For example, files in the
.Pa artwork
directory on the NFS server at 192.168.1.202 will appear in the
.Pa /net/192.168.1.202/artwork
directory without any additional configuration.

This was committed some time ago; the last missing nit from wblock@ is included in a new review at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1447; how do I close this one?
