Went as deep as possible and found other options but nothing about users. I need to be careful here as udev seems to have taken over dev and I'm not sure what MCC is looking at to change within fstab should I proceed anyway, so simply backed out for now.-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1

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.
Have you tried plugging it in, going to MCC > Mount Points and setting the option for users there, then saving it to fstab? It should write a removable disk line that will enable hotplug mounting with user access.

Thanks for the thought Anne but the only place I found the device was under partitions and I can not find a way there to change user. I was hoping that it would show up within devices so am still at a loss.
Under the 'Hardware' option when selecting " sda " then " Run Config Tool " I'm taken back to the 'partitions' menu so have the same problem.
Any more ideas?
Yes - it's in the partitioning section. You click on the sda tab, but I think you have to open Advanced to get the extra options.

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