ext3 removable media
Hallo, I'm new to this forum, so please be kind ;-D
I've an external usb disk formatted with ext3 filesystem on a Debian Etch. Gnome automount recognize and mount the device, but it seems to have only root write access. How can I tell the system to mount any ext3 removable media with "user" option?
Thanks a lot ^_^

you need to edit your /etc/fstab
make it look something like
Code:/dev/xxx /ext3 rw,user,auto 1 1

The USB drive will be usually named the same for all USB removeable drive

This is ok only if you plug a single usb device at once. I want something a bit more useful than just putting an fstab line for every device I'll connect. Is there a way to tell the system that every usb device has to be mounted with "user" option?
