@serialhobbyist: Don't confuse yourself. All I was trying to say was that root privileges are required to mount a device. Once it is mounted, the individual user's privileges will determine if that user may read , write or execute files and directories on the mount -ed volume.

Does the same thing apply when a user is logged on: it's still mounted by root ? In other words, if I get something working whilst logged on, and then put the same command in fstab , it should still work?
