Bug Description
Hi,
Exactly as what happens in Ubuntu 10.04, VFAT usb drives mount with root access only,
https:/
same thing happens to Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick now.
The workaround in above bug report doesn't apply to me -- I don't have usbmount installed.
Tech details is the same as
https:/
when I mount the vfat manually with very specific read and write permissions for my user id, everything are still mounted as root:root
Following the examples from
https:/
This is what I get:
$ ls -ld /mnt/usbpen
drwxr-xr-x 2 tong tong 4096 2010-08-06 18:36 /mnt/usbpen
$ sudo mount -t vfat -o defaults,
$ ls -ld /mnt/usbpen
drwx------ 5 root root 4096 1969-12-31 19:00 /mnt/usbpen
$ sudo ls -l /mnt/usbpen
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22 2010-09-12 00:15 file1.txt
. . .
The same mount command have always been working fine under Debian.
