Hi,
I'm having trouble mounting my zip drive (100M NEC ATAPI) from an
account other than root.
I set up a disk with mke2fs. And here's the relevant line in /etc/fstab:
/dev/hdd /mnt/zip auto
sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,unhide 0 0
Then I can mount the disk with:
[root] # mount -t ext2 /dev/hdd /mnt/zip
This lets me create new directories and, presumably, other things. But
when I become a user, I can no longer mount:
[root] $ su joel
[joel] $ mount -t ext2 /dev/hdd /mnt/zip
mount: only root can do that
I thought that was what the "user" option in fstab was for! I even tried
changing "nosuid" to "suid"
Any ideas?
BTW: is there any significant difference between NEC and Iomega zip
drives? The invoice for my new computer says Iomega, but the installed
drive is a NEC. Just wondering if I should demand a replacement....
TIA
Joel
