I used this method to auto-mount, from this thread:
Code: Select all

Code: Select all
[1] Find the correct UUID number for your windows partitions:
Code: Select all
sudo blkid -c /dev/null
[2] Create permanent mountpoints for your partitions to live in, for example:
Code: Select all
sudo mkdir /media/Data
[3] Edit fstab as root:
Code: Select all
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[4] Add the following lines to the end of fstab, examples:
Code: Select all
UUID=8C169E22169E0CF8 /media/Data ntfs defaults,umask=000,nls=utf8,windows_names 0 0
Substitute the correct UUID numbers from step [1] and the correct mountpoints from step [2].
[5] If you have already mounted these partitions manually through computer(icon) - unmount them.
[6] Run the following command that will test for errors and if there are none mount the partitions to their new home without requiring a reboot:
Code: Select all
sudo mount -a
How, please, would I go about fixing this permission issue in order to use this data-partition, that is now mounted, as my own home with my files in it?
Thanks for any help with this,
mack
