USB disk automount - permissions?
9.04 amd64 / i386 and before versions
If a handy, camera, usb-stick are plugged, a folder /media/disk appears and give automatically write permissions to the user. Now i plug a usb harddisk and the folder has only root:root permissions and the user cannot write to the disk. The disk seems to be mounted properly on /media/disk and i did not give a partition label to break this feature. It's formatted with ext3.

Found tips to give other permissions to /media/disk, but this folder is autocreated while hotplug. If a disk folder is created by user and set to right permissions, the automounter create disk-1 instead........
Any ideas to get this properly working? Whats the difference between handy, camera. usb-stick and this external drive?
