Ok this is really annoying. Before I reinstall my 1.4rc1 I was able to mount as a user but now I cant and dunno why
I try the suggestion from this thread :
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=10147&highlight=ntfs+umask
But it wont work this is what I set in fstab :
| Quote: |
/dev/hde6 /mnt/games ext3 owner,uid=1000,gid=100,async 0 0
/dev/hde7 /mnt/download ext3 owner,uid=1000,gid=100,async 0 0
|
When I type mount -a I receive : | Quote: |
root@Atlas /home/skeleton:mount -a
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hde6,
or too many mounted file systems
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hde7,
or too many mounted file systems
|
I know the fstype is good because I can mount it as root with the -t ext3.
My /etc/password for my user give me 1000 for uid and 100 for gid
what is my error.
2) I posted about evolution startup problem but no one seems to find a way for that. SO Just ask again just to be sure.
Each time I reboot my computer I have to do the command : killev has my user to make evolution working WHY? this is really annoying to do this each time and dont tell me to not reboot plz

Followups on this question in evolution error startup please.
EDIT: Added the following
This thread isn't related to NTFS issues. Please see User can mount Ntfs but not enter directory. Why?, for issues related to mounting NTFS/vfat volumes with permissions.

I realize you're frustrated, but this subject line is not very descriptive, and might scare some people off.

Two things are going on here, I think. First of all, the fact that it mounts OK with the filesystem type explicitly stated hints to me that you probably have ghost superblock data as a result of having had ntfs or vfat on these partitions before. See mount says /dev/hda1 (/boot) is ntfs? for more on this issue.
Secondly, if you are trying to enable mounting as a user for an ext3 filesystem, why are you doing ntfs-y things from ntfs threads to it? I don't see the need for the uid= and gid= parameters, and I would change "owner" to "user", unless your user happens to own the raw disk partition, which is possible, I suppose, but unlikely. See fstab (5) and mount (8 ) for more information.

My apologies ... The subject should be more explicit.
I tried to the dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hde6 and change owner to user and users, rw and I this time it will mount but the perm on /mnt/games is 755 and my user can't write to it.
I try manually with mount -o users,rw /dev/hde6 /mnt/games. and still no good.
I read the fstab and mount man over and over and still cant figure it out. |

When it's mounted, change the permissions and ownership of /mnt/games to whatever you want with chmod. The permissions should stick on the root directory of that partition, and take effect the next time you mount it. I just checked this with my /boot partition, and was able to chmod and chown it, and it persisted across an unmount/mount.

| Oh thanks so much rac. I didn't know you can do that with ext3 I always use the ntfs to get my stuff. |
