Etch is debian 4, lenny is debian 5, but this isn't the point. I've added a sata hard drive dev/sdb1 it shows up in system media folder but when I click it I get permissions denied so tried to mount it and error no mounting points I in /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab so I looked in fstab they Are no settings for dev/sdb1 in it. I'm new to debian so I need to know how to set it up so all user can use this drive. Thanks And: God Bless You! You need add a line like this one in /etc/fstab: /dev/device /mount/point filesistem options dump pass For use normal user /dev/sdb1 /media/HDD ext3 defaults,user,rw 0 0 N.B. If you create the mount point whit a root user do you need change the owner of the folder, is better you create a folder whit a normal user you will like use that device.

I'm trying to get my file's off it on to the new debian install I got now, then I'm going to take the derive back out of this computer. So I think I need to put the file system as nfts not ext3 right?

Edit fstab and change the file system to ntfs. Regarding the permissions, you need to make the mount point readable and possibly writable by your users. There's many ways you can do go about it, I'd do it via groups. Here's an example: 'groupadd $GROUPNAME' # create new group 'usermod -G $GROUPNAME $USERNAME' # Adds user to group, run it for whichever user you want to access the mount 'chown :$GROUPNAME Mountpoint' # modifies mountpoint permission to be of the group 'chmod g+rw Mountpoint' # gives group read/write permissions Cheers, James -----Original Message----- From: David Hammett [mailto:doclinux(a)copper.net] Sent: February 3, 2010 5:27 PM To: m.vaschetto(a)snservice.net Cc: debian-user(a)lists.debian.org Subject: Re: R: sata hard drive mounting problem Thanks Marco You stated:>> You need add a line like this one in /etc/fstab: /dev/device /mount/point file system options dump pass For use normal user /dev/sdb1 /media/HDD ext3 defaults,user,rw 0 0 ------------------------ The drive has an nfts windows file system on it with some folder already on it.
