This seems like a really dumb question to me, but for some reason I
can't figure it out. As a regular user, I want to mount, unmount and
write to my floppy drive.
The mount and unmount parts work fine with sudo. It's copying files to
the floppy that present the problem. The floppy (and other devices) are
mounted at the /media hierarchy. I've set all these directories to
root.disk ownership, with group write permissions, and I'm in the disk
group. But when the floppy _mounts_, it has root.root ownership and the
group write permissions are gone.
(Don't suggest I make cp a sudo command. I'm not always using the cp
command to copy files.)
Any ideas?
Paul
