The weirdest part of this -- no I shouldn't say "weirdest" 'cause we are dealing with computers here -- is that I can mount the flash disk manually- but ONLY as root. Try mounting this as user and the error message that 'only root can do this' comes up. The mount command, BTW, used is mount -t /dev/sda /media/sda1.
that should probably be mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
Yes, it should be. A typo on my part.
If you have any other ideas I'd be glad to hear them.
You could put the relevant info in fstab, with the options noauto,user added. Then add a desktop link, and you can mount it easily as user.
Thank you for this. So simple and straightforward - and it works. Why couldn't someone from Suse who reads this forum tell me this earlier and saved me hours of searching, reading, frustration, ....? Again, thank you for this solution. Cheers. -- All Scottish food is based on a dare.
