If extra drives are installed after the main installation has passed you
must add the word 'user' in the options of the device to be mounted.
Otherwise if left at default, the user will not have rights to mount the
drives, only root. This can be corrected through kfstab and removing
'default' and replace it with rw,no auto,user.Note: you will need to add
a directory in the root or /mnt (wherever your current drives are
located) /ls120 (or anything you like) to mount the device. The program
kfstab can facilitate this process.
/etc/fstab file should have the following line.
/dev/hdc /ls120 msdos rw,no auto, user 0 0
