Hi,
This is not the first time I experience this, but now I wanted to ask. I formatted (EXT4) a new disk in a USB-to-SATA enclosure. All is fine. But when it is mounted via the "tray", I can't access it, I don't have rights to write on the disk. What I'm doing now is adding a directory as root and chowning that directory to my user. Then I can use that directory as storage.
Is this the way to go or am I missing something ?
I have three empty folders, ~/A1, ~/A2, ~/A3, that I use for mounting external media. Because of their names, they naturally sort to the top of a file manager view (defaulting to sorting by name, of course). A python script mounts an external SATA drive on ~/A3, does an rsync-based backup, then unmounts the drive. I haven't worked out how to get it turn the external enclosure on and off, though ;-) Bob - -- Bob Williams System: Linux 3.16.7-7-desktop Distro: openSUSE 13.2 (x86_64) with KDE Development Platform: 4.14.3 Uptime: 06:00am up 7:55, 3 users, load average: 0.16, 0.05, 0.06 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlS+U74ACgkQ0Sr7eZJrmU480ACeOLz1DvVMfV+uD7zK8PM9kLYk 08YAniLLYF1GYPmmjcW2+0M369dBURpp =FmOq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
