Hi All,
"#" is roots user prompt
"$" is my user's prompt
# mount -t ext3 -o users,exec /dev/sdc1 /mnt/LIVE
# chmod -R 2777 /mnt/LIVE
$ cp -R /home/CDs/Keepers/Linux/Usb.CreateLiveUSB /mnt/LIVE
$ umount /mnt/LIVE
I can not umount /mnt/LIVE because it is not in fstab
and "$" is not root.
I want the user to be able to umount this on and I don't
want it cluttering up fstab.
Is there an "-o" option that will allow the
user to umount it?

Well you shouldn't have mounted it as root.
There is a wealth of documentation on this subject from granting servers
access to mount and unmount file systems to users using fuse mounts like
most desktop environments do as us Perl guys say there are many ways to
do it!
Hi Paul,
You don't know the whole story. I wanted to mount it
as root. Then I wanted to test if I could write to
it as group=user (100).
I wanted to umount the drive as a user so I
didn't have to go back to root and then back to
user again for some more tests you are not seeing.
I was hoping there was a "-o " option to allow
that. Google have failed me.
