I know that this question is asked before, but nothing seems to work. I have a double boot windows 10 - ubuntu 18.10 on the NVME and a 2nd 1 TB HDD drive (ntfs). Windows of course have permission on the HDD, but ubuntu doesn't (read-only).
I want to have read-write-execute permission as user (id=1000) on the HDD!
tried:
remount
sudo mount -o remount,rw Sometimes works after 1st reboot, but after 2nd reboot, I had read-only permissions again
edit fstab
default entry:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/[disk-id] /path/to/mount auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
changed to:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/[disk-id] /path/to/mount auto nosuid,rw,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
,
/dev/disk/by-uuid/[disk-id] /path/to/mount auto nosuid,uid=1000,nodev,rw,nofail,x-gvfs-show
,
/dev/disk/by-uuid/[disk-id] /path/to/mount ntfs defaults
,
/dev/disk/by-uuid/[disk-id] /path/to/mount ntfs-3g defaults
,
dev/disk/by-uuid/[disk-id] /path/to/mount ntfs nosuid,uid=1000,nodev,rw,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
chown
sudo chown -R -v user:user /path/to/mount
error: failed to change ownership of '/path/to/mount' from user:root to user:user ,
chown -R user /path/to/mount
didn't work
As far as I understand, permissions are granted upon mount on boot time. So, the solution has to lie at fstab. But, the mount point is at /media/ (or by default at /mnt/) which are directories with only-root permissions, thus I tried to mount under /home/user/testDir, but got the error:
mount: /home/user/testDir: mount point not mounted or bad option
Any suggestions? Maybe, in how to properly edit fstab? Any help will be deeply appreciated.
Most common cause is Fast Boot in Windows.
For that (in Windows):
Done.
