** Description changed:
i am unable to mount Removable Media. type of media; pendrive, card reader,
external hard disk.
everytime i plugged the media, an error occurs which state 'Cannot mount
volume. You are not privileged to mount this volume.'
i tried to plug an external CD-ROM drive and it can mount as pernormal.
<--- tried to mount by Terminal;
mizzud...@linuxrules:~$ sudo mount /computer:///
mount: can't find /computer:/// in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
mizzud...@linuxrules:~$ sudo mount computer:///
mount: can't find computer:/// in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
mizzud...@linuxrules:~$ mount /dev/sdb1
mount: only root can mount /dev/sdb1 on /media/bro
<--- the /media/bro ??? no media were named 'bro'
mizzud...@linuxrules:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb1
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
