I've tried the solution suggested above but when I stick the NTFS USB drive in, it says it can't mount it and point to this bit of documentation:
Unprivileged block device mounts work only if all the below requirements are met: 1. ntfs-3g is compiled with integrated FUSE support 2. the ntfs-3g binary is at least version 1.2506 3. the ntfs-3g binary is set to setuid-root 4. the user has access right to the volume 5. the user has access right to the mount point http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-faq/#unprivileged But the default ntfs-3g version shipped with Lucid is not compiled with integrated FUSE support: u...@host:~$ ntfs-3g --version ntfs-3g 2010.3.6 external FUSE 28 u...@host:~$ So maybe that works only for FAT drives? Anybody have a workaround for NTFS drives in that case? :) On Fri, May 7, 2010 at 1:15 PM, X-Ander <[email protected]> wrote: > I have added the following lines to my /etc/fstab: > > /dev/sdb1 /media/usbd1 auto > noauto,rw,user,shortname=mixed,dmask=02,fmask=0113,utf8=1,flush 0 2 > /dev/sdc1 /media/usbd2 auto > noauto,rw,user,shortname=mixed,dmask=02,fmask=0113,utf8=1,flush 0 2 > > Now two USB flash drives are mounted as I want.
