[ccoss] Re: mounting errors

I just did a "man fstab" and it suggested "man mount" and from what I 
can tell on my system, the ext2 options do not include uid/gid options....

Maybe someone can correct me. Initially I though users and uid/gid would 
conflict, but I cannot find evidence of that either...

Where did you get the idea to use those options? I'd recommend that  you 
figure out how to mount it as root, specifying all the options you need 
(at least ones not directly fstab-ralated of course;-) Then you can work 
on fitting them into fstab.
