Hi,
sorry by I'm a linux newbie: I'm using FC4 and I need to mount a partition o
n the
promise RAID controller on my A8V motherboard: I do:


dmraid -ay

to create the mapping in

/dev/mapper/pdc_ehfbdhffi8

then I try to do (as root):

mount -o user /dev/mapper/pdc_ehfbdhffi8 /mnt/mypart

and it works but I have only read accesses to /mnt/mypart when using a non-r
oot user....
how can I do ?


I also tried

mount -o umask=0777 /dev/mapper/pdc_partition1 /mnt/mypart

but in this case I get the message:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/pdc_ehfbdhff
i8,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail  or so


also, when using the command

/sbin/e2fsck /dev/mapper/pdc_ehfbdhffi8

I get the message:

[root@d83-176-96-165 frm]# /sbin/e2fsck /dev/mapper/pdc_ehfbdhffi8
e2fsck 1.37 (21-Mar-2005)
/sbin/e2fsck: Permission denied while trying to open /dev/mapper/pdc_ehfbdhf
fi8
You must have r/w access to the filesystem or be root
[root@d83-176-96-165 frm]#

but I ran the command as root !


Thanks for any hint,
Francesco
