and "anyone" in users can access it.
For that I need to be root, which in the general case neither me nor the owner of the machine may be. That is the convenience of the vfat partition that Hal mounts as owned by the currently active user, as with the "users" option of mount. Can I set something on my USB ext2 partition to tell Hal to automount it as owned by the user? -- Carlos FL "It is not worth an intelligent man's time to be in the majority.
