I have to unmount it as root. In fstab there is now:
UUID=44F1-7D0C /mnt/sda vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0
Hard-coding sda as the mount point doesn't make any sense. Give it
a symbolic name like SOME_THUMB.
, but as a normal user I can only mount the device, not unmount it: to unmount
it I must be root. Why this?
What error do you get when using the pumount command?
Another thing that is not clear to me is the difference between the `user' and
`users' options of `mount' command.
I'm not sure.
But now I understand why the problem occurs trying to mount the drive when the
umts device is already plugged in: for some reason, although the umts device
is mapped into /dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/sda comes to be busy. So, if I add in fstab
another line:
/dev/sdb /mnt/sdb vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0
, I can mount the pendrive on /mnt/sdb. But now I wish to use the UUID as
normal user. Suggestions welcome.
What error do you get?
