Hi All,
"#" is roots user prompt

I can not umount /mnt/LIVE because it is not in fstab
and "$" is not root.
I want the user to be able to umount this on and I don't
want it cluttering up fstab.
Is there an "-o" option that will allow the
user to umount it?
You don't know the whole story. I wanted to mount it
as root. Then I wanted to test if I could write to
it as group=user (100).
I wanted to umount the drive as a user so I
didn't have to go back to root and then back to
user again for some more tests you are not seeing.
I was hoping there was a "-o " option to allow
that. Google have failed me.

What you do as root usually must be undone by root.
Perfect use case for a specific 'sudo' to allow a specific user to umount
/mnt/LIVE.
