I thought that it was listed in fstab with the user(s) option, the way his is, that the mount command was run as root, as long as you ran "mount <mount point>" or "mount <device>". On the other hand, using the format "mount <device> <mount point>" requires root permissions. But I have not used entries in /fstab for removable devices for a while - I use HAL instead.On Wed, Apr 2, 2008 at 9:41 AM, Patrick O'CallaghanIf it was just a permissions problem, 'mount' would give an error message. Likewise if it wasn't in the user's path (it's possible though unlikely that $PATH gets him a different version of 'mount'; using '/bin/mount' would get round that). pocHe is saying that mount works as root and not a regular user but once its mounted it works for the user, usually that is a permissions issue. I know F8 you get an error message but he is on FC6. Max
