Now I changed the permission to full for that mount point. I mounted the drive with my fstab entry as: --------------------------------------------------------------- /dev/hdb1 /mnt/install ext3 defaults 1 1 it mounts but still same problem. to double check if its mounted I used $ df -h which gives me --------------------------- /dev/hdb1 19G 173M 18G 1% /mnt/install but cant access it as normal user but only as root user. any suggestions?
Sorry, My mistake. I forgot to change the permission recursively. I just changed the permission for the /mnt/install folder but inside that still denied. now doing this solved the problem ============================================= # chmod -R 777 /mnt/install and fstab entry /dev/hdb1 /mnt/install ext3 defaults 1 1 ============================================= Thanks
