Hi all,
Im mounting a usb memory stick using submount. After a bit of struggling i can get the thing to read and write, but i keep getting these annoying messages saying that I can't change the permissions (as a non root user).

Does any one know how I can change the ownership/permissions of the mountpoint whenever submount mounts it??? My fstab looks like this:

Code:
/dev/sda                /mnt/usbstick   subfs           auto,fs=vfat,program=/usr/sbin/submountd,owner,user,rw,umask=000        0 0


Tar very much....:)

take a look at the mountpount directory (ls -l) when the device is unmounted and when it's mounted
