I'm in the process of upgrading the hdd in my laptop so I bought
one of those 2.5" enclosures at Frys. I partition the drive as linux
and formatted as ext3.
Normally when I plug in a USB stick that is fat formatted it is mounted
automatically in /media/usbdisk. I have full rights to that fs. When
the Linux one is plugged in it is mounted as /dev/sda1 and I need to be
root to write anything in there. I guess that is being limited by the
FS on the disk?
/dev/sda1 on /media/disk type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
For a usb fat stick I normally see uid=500.
