I do not know if my problem is the same, but the error message I keep getting when trying to mount any NTFS or FAT partition or drive is the same, "Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged "

I do not know what to do and I have tried using PySDM (Storage Device Manager) and while it can mount the drives, the changes are NOT permanent. A reboot will mean that I have to run PySDM again.

Please advise?
