X and Fluxbox :: disk icons

Check the mount point permissions (ls -l /mnt) and the device permissions (ls -l /dev/hda1)
If they aren't writable for group (something like drwxrw-r--) then user DSL cannot write to them...

Code Sample

# ls -l /mnt
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 oct 7 2006 hda1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 oct 7 2006 hdb1

Code Sample

#ls -l /dev/hda1
brwxrwxrwx 1 root disk 3, 1apr 14 2001/dev/hda1

if you mount a floppy just as "sudo mount /dev/fd0" it should take the params from fstab, and let dsl write there.. Try that?

Yes, I tried that also

Code Sample

# sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/auto/floppy

Then, after browsing as dsl user in enelfm to /mnt/auto/floppy I got "Permission denied"

ls -l /mnt/auto?
