How can I mount a USB external drive (SimpleTech 320 GB) as a normal
user?
If as a normal user I run 'mount /[mount_point]', there's no error message
but the device is not mounted. As root the same command mounts the
device and I am thereafter able to read and write to it as a normal user.
Here's what I've got. What else do I need to do?
$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.22.14-72.fc6 (brewbuilder at hs20-bc1-6.build.redhat.com) (gcc version 4.1.2 20070626 (Red Hat 4.1.2-13)) #1 SMP Wed Nov 21 15:12:59 EST 2007
$ rpm -q ntfs-3g fuse
ntfs-3g-1.1104-1.fc6
fuse-2.7.0-6.fc6
$ ls -l /bin/ntfs-3g
-rwsrwxrwx 1 root root 39052 Nov 8 13:59 /bin/ntfs-3g
In /etc/fstab:
/dev/sda1 /simple ntfs-3g noauto,users,rw,umask=0 0 0
$ ls -dl /simple
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Apr 1 23:18 /simple
$ ls -l /dev/sd*
brw-rw-rw- 1 root disk 8, 0 Apr 1 23:58 /dev/sda
brw-rw-rw- 1 cwsulliv disk 8, 1 Apr 2 00:10 /dev/sda1
Thanks for your help.
