What file system is it? If it's vfat, then you have to edit /etc/fstab
and add the option "user" to the line describing the mount for the
external drive.>>I already did it. Here is the line that I add to fstab: /dev/sda1 /home/hendro/coba01 vfat noauto, user, rw 0 0

Then you can mount and unmount the partition as a
normal user.>>I can unmount it as normal user but I can't mount it as normal user.
Currently it looks like your drive is being mounted as
root. As such, all the files belong to root and you have read-only
access when you are running as a normal user.
