+ <p>The new automounter is a cleanroom implementation of
+ functionality available in most other Unix systems, using proper
+ kernel support implemented via an autofs filesystem. The
+ automounter supports a standard map format, and integrates with
+ the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) service.</p>
+
+ <p>After shipping in 10.1-RELEASE, most of the work focused
+ on bug fixing, improving documentation, and optimization. The
+ biggest new feature was the addition of a "-media" map, designed
+ to handle removable media, such as flash drives or DVDs, and the
+ neccessary elements of infrastructure to support it, namely
+ fstyp(8) and GEOM devd notifications. Also, the "-noauto" map
+ was added, for automatic mounting of filesystems marked "noauto"
+ in fstab(5), instead of having to write autofs map for them.</p>
