Thank you. I don't want to definitely change ownership of /dev/sda1, because if I want to log in as another user (even though I wrote a specific line into /etc/fstab to grant all users to get access on their pen-drive by /dev/sda1) I see /dev/sda1 belongs to another user. As an alternative do you think I can change permissions to that device (e.g. chmod 777 /dev/sda1 && chmod 777 /dev/sda) ?? It maight be there's no other way to solve my problem. In this case I opt for your tip.
If you agree with me, the other thing I can try, is to add every user who needs to be able to read and write on a pen drive accessible by /dev/sda1 to disk group. I don't know if it will works, but it's only my idea.
