https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=440834 User 1kfmm4x02@sneakemail.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=440834#c432905 Summary: Cannot user-mount writable NTFS partition Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Beta 3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: 1kfmm4x02@sneakemail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Other I have the following entry in my /etc/fstab: /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SAMSUNG_HD501LJ_S10NJ1GP701972-part1 /windows/C ntfs-3g noatime,user,noauto,users,gid=users,fmask=133,dmask=022,locale=sv_SE 0 0 The fstab entry was created by the installer, directed by my input. Consequently, I expect to be able to user-mount the partition, "mount /windows/C". However, I get the following error output" Error opening '/dev/sda1': Permission denied Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Permission denied Please check '/dev/sda1' and the ntfs-3g binary permissions, and the mounting user ID. More explanation is provided at http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged Being a fairly seasoned Linux user, I have been able to solve such problems in the past, but I'm getting increasingly tired of having to go through the same manual routine every time I upgrade to a new version of my distribution. And what is an ordinary recent convert to Linux to do when presented with such a problem? In my opinion, this just ought to work straight out of the box. Therefore, I consider this a bug, and not just an low-priority enhancement (see bug #432905). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
