Owning new partitions

Asked by Dave Allen

I have made a real partition on my hard disk for data, so that it will remain unaffected by upgrade installs, and be accessible for whatever systems I have. It works, but I am always asked for authrization to access it from any system. Can I arrange for it to be owned by me on more than one system, so I don't have to mount it every time I log on?
  (I put this as an addendum to question 55957, but Tom asked me to make it a new one. He asks me to quote the ref:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+question/59957
to that entry, which has useful information on it.

You can make it mount automatically by putting an entry in /etc/fstab.
