I really appreciate all the discussion. I can summarize.
The task:
- I want to automount a SATA disk in a hot swap removable drive bay.
- The disk can be any format: ext4, vfat, ntfs
- I would prefer to use the systemd automount facility where I place the needed information in /etc/hosts.
- The actions are to be performed by a normal user without root permissions. The disk should be mounted as the result of something like: cd /backup
- The user who mounted the disk should have write access to the top level directory. This is non-negotiable. Without this, the user needs root permissions to change the top level directory permissions.
It is simply impossible, except on vfat, ntfs, or exfat. This is non-negotiable. :-)
Never say never! And recall that I do not want this for existing files or directories. It is only for the top level directory for things that do not exist there yet. I think I will try the suggestion in answer 21 described on https://askubuntu.com/questions/25071/how-to-run-a-script-when-a-specific-fl... I'm just waiting to get access to a system.
