How about this ?
If you can somehow run a script everytime, you plugged
in your external harddisk you could do sometime like
this in your script.
Step 1. Unmount both the partitions.
umount /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2
Step 2. Mount the two partitions back again with the
appropriate rights and permissions at the desired
mount points. Something like this.
mount -t vfat -o rw /dev/sda1 /foo
mount -t ext3 -o rw /dev/sda2 /bar
Will that work for you ?
