I have a mount problem. I have several usb sticks and a usb external hard
drive and am using Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick. When I mount any of them using
either mount or pmount or allowing them to automount I can't copy anything
to them from the console except as root (sudo to be exact). Also things
like vmware or virtualbox do not have access to them. The command I use
is:
sudo mount -t <type> -o rw,umask=000 <device> <dir>
Substituting appropriate types and device and directory. Regardless of
what I have tried the directory always comes up with permissions of
rwxr-xr-x with owner root:root so that only root can write to the drive.
How do I solve this so that I as a user can write to the drive from the
command line?
Tom
