To overcome this on my wife's dual booted system I mount the filesystem
so that her username owns the complete filesystem. To do so:
In /etc/fstab:
$DEVICE $MOUNT_POINT $FS_TYPE
uid=$UID,gid=$GID 1 2
- replacing:
- $DEVICE with the actual device name
- $MOUNT_POINT with the actual mount point
- $FS_TYPE with the actual filesystem type
- $UID with the actual UID of the user you want to own all files,
etc. on the filesystem
- $GID with the actual GID of the group you want to own all files,
etc. on the filesystem
EXAMPLE:
/dev/hdd1 /fs1 vfat
uid=251,gid=251 1 2
Then just mount it. It will be remounted upon each reboot.
