Hi
I am trying to get my system to allow users to plug in a usb [ mass_storage ] device in such a way that they need only plug it in - read/write - and disconnect it, all without having to use the command line.
To date I have done everything required by the HOWTO at this link - http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Flash-Memory-HOWTO/linux-2.6.html .
Two things now to resolve:
1.) [EMAIL PROTECTED] mnt]# mount /udev/64MB1 -t vfat /mnt/64MB
And it should work.
And it does. Still have one problem though. Can not access the device as user.
Before mounting:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mnt]# ls -al total 127 drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 Dec 24 01:26 ./ drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Dec 23 19:53 ../ drwxr-xr-x 2 frank frank 4096 Dec 24 01:22 16MB/ drwxr-xr-x 2 frank frank 4096 Dec 24 01:22 64MB/ drwxr-xr-x 2 frank frank 4096 Dec 24 01:22 Camera/ <SNIP>
After mounting:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mnt]# mount /udev/16MB1 -t vfat /mnt/16MB [EMAIL PROTECTED] mnt]# ls -al total 139 drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 Dec 24 01:26 ./ drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Dec 23 19:53 ../ drwxr--r-- 2 root root 16384 Jan 1 1970 16MB/ drwxr-xr-x 2 frank frank 4096 Dec 24 01:22 64MB/ drwxr-xr-x 2 frank frank 4096 Dec 24 01:22 Camera/ <SNIP>
As you can see, mounting as user is still not working as the system changes the owner/group of the mounted device to root.
As I understood the HOWTO, I ought to have been able to access the device as user, so I am obviously missing something.
2.) Upon a reboot I issued :
# ls /udev
And instead of simply seeing my usb device status, as before the reboot, I get to see my whole system. See attachment " udev.txt "
So now I'm completely at a loss as to how to proceed.
To help further, I have also included as attachments, my /etc/fstab and etc/udev.rules files.
Anyone know how I ought to proceed from here?

Big or small, a challenge requires the same commitment to resolve.
