Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/1719

firejail 0.9.52

Using firefox with the default profile.
In /etc/firefox.local:

noblacklist /mnt/stuff
blacklist /mnt

or also:

noblacklist /mnt/stuff
blacklist /mnt
whitelist /mnt/stuff

Neither works. Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible?

You should be able to achieve what you want just by whitelist - that is, whitelist /mnt/stuff means that only that subfolder will be available. Or are you trying to do something else?

yes, that's what I'm trying to do. But your suggestion doesn't work either (I can now access /mnt itself, but it's empty). Maybe a bug?

That's probably because there's a disable-mnt in the default profile, so you'll want to do a ignore disable-mnt in your firefox.local.
