Problem mounting disk | Problem with chown?
Hello,
I know I know, another thread about mounting a disk : I've searched pretty much everywhere but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong! EDIT: Ok i figured out i needed to chown the mounting point in order to have rights on the drive. The problem is now that i can use this drive with my account, but how can I give the rights to other users on this computer? EDIT2 : Ok I solved the problem by myself. For the other newbies out there, i just needed to use chmod instead of chown, so I could add a whole group with the r(ead)w(rite)x(ecute) permissions. I have two hard drive on one computer, I have edited the fstab so that any user can mount it and use it easily. The disk is automatically mounted, but I can't write anything on it, or create any folder, exept in a terminal when I'm superuser. Here's the informations you might need : Code:
Code:
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes Code:
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root users 4096 Jan 23 13:11 Hitachi Code:
uid=500(Loic) gid=100(users) groups=100(users),6(disk),10(wheel),15(man),20(games),39(video),50(ftp),63(audio),11(cdrom),500(Loic) So the disk I'm interested using is the Hitachi, listed as sdb by fdisk. I'm using fedora 14 (32 bits) Can anyone please help me? Thank you (and sorry for my english) -Loic. |
