how can mount my usb drive with access privilege. When I wrote as a rootWhat version of Mandrake you are running may make a difference, but on 9.2 automount will automaticly mount most USB drives. Take a look at /mnt/removable, and see if it is there.
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/usb,
I was able to access it the usb but I cannot read or write even though the /mnt/usb has drwxrwxrwx permission.
Can anyone help mounting the drive as a root and grant the other users the write access to it.
I would guess that this is a FAT or VFAT file system, so if you realy want to mount it manualy, try something like:
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/usb -o uid=500,umask=0
