I've just installed Debian 5.0 on an old computer, and I'm having problems getting a backup USB drive to automount.
I have a mount point set up at /media/usb, and I set it to be world readable (drwxrwxrwx). I plug in the drive (it normalLy reads no prblem under Windows7), and I get an error message to the effect that a mount option is invalid. I explicitly mount it ("mount /dev/sda1 /media/usb" in a root terminal), and the permissions promptly go to read only for root and nothing for anyone else (dr-x------) . I ASLO get an error message that I do not hvae the permissions to read the files on the drive at user level. Can anyone suggest an solution? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
