No - ext2/3/4's root inodes are just regular directories and can be owned by any user as Ed already mentioned. I set most of my removable media to be owned by my normal UID/GID for exactly this reason (they can also be labelled with xattrs for e.g. SELinux if required).


That's what happens when there's 50 different filesystems. I guess I need to brush up on my man mount knowledge.

I don't use ext2/3/4 for any drive or media I own nor at work.
