 Posted: Tue Oct 24, 2006 9:52 am Post subject: External USB hard disk - only write permission |
 |
|
Hi,
I've a problem with my external USB hard disk. I've two partitions (NTFS and ext3) on my hard disk.
When I try to mount my hard disk it works, but I can only read the partitions.
How can I get the read/write permission on my external hard disk?
This is my fstab:
| Code: | # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't
# needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage
# efficiency). It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail / tail freely.
#
# The root filesystem should have a pass number of either 0 or 1.
# All other filesystems should have a pass number of 0 or greater than 1.
#
# See the manpage fstab(5) for more information.
#
# <fs> <mountpoint> <type> <opts> <dump/pass>
# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hda2 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/hda4 / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/hda3 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,user 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk ext3 noauto,user,exec,rw 0 0
/dev/hda1 /windows vfat noatime,user 0 0
/dev/ipod /mnt/ipod auto async,noauto,users,rw 0 0
#/dev/sda2 /mnt/ipod auto noauto,user,rw 0 0
# NOTE: The next line is critical for boot!
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
# use almost no memory if not populated with files)
shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0

fiore,
The ext3 filesystem has proper permissions, so your user that wants to write needs permissions as owner or as a member of a group that can write to all or parts of the drive. In effect, this is like /home/<users>. compare the permissions from there to the permissions on your ext3 filesystem.
