[SOLVED] mount patitions in NEW Mint 5 RC1 beta 045
Posted: Sat Aug 09, 2008 5:21 am
For some reason Mint 5 RC1 doesn't allow anyone other than a superuser to mount any of my hard disk partitions without asking for a password. I have got around this problem by setting up all the Fat32 partitions in system settings disk & file system section so they can be mounted by any user but I still cant mount my only NTFS partition without a password. I think NTFS file systems are handled by ntfs-3g but can someone tell me how I can set it to allow any user permission to mount it.
Here is how my fstab looks at present. The NTFS partition should be sdb1but i dont see it.
