SOLVED (sort of): USB disk user rights

[lanrun]

I have a USB disk that I recently formatted in Daryna main to the ext3 filesystem. Whenever I plug it in, Daryna automounts it and its icon appears on the Gnome desktop (with the name disk). However, only root has permission to write to it. Obviously, this isn't very useful to me. How can I make it so that I have full access to USB disks which are automatically mounted?

This confuses me - I thought you'd get permissions...
One way is to have the disk in fstab mounted with a line like this

Code: Select all

/dev/sdb1   /media/usb auto noauto,owner,kuzu 0 0

I don't know what kuzu is but it seems to be something to use for USB disks
You also have to find out which "/dev" the USB disk is - use gparted
You also have to make a folder for the mount point

Code: Select all

sudo mkdir /media/usb

I don't know why it is only root that gets write permissions and other get only read permissions.

What I tried was changing the owner of the USB disk to myusername with the chown command in the terminal, sudo chown -hR myusername /media/disk.
That worked.
The USB disk automounts whenever I plug it in, that is according to settings in the control centre.
