What if I'd like ordinary users to be able to mount /dev/fd0, for=20 instance, onto a common dir located in /mnt (/mnt/floppy)?=20 I made mkdir -m 755 /mnt/floppy as root. When I try to mount fd0 onto thi= s dir=20 as an ordinary user I get "msdos: /dev/fd0: Operation not permitted" whil= e=20 when doing the same onto a dir that this user owns everything goes fine.
