[Bug 42473] Re: after mounting windows--user can not browse files

[Phillip Susi]

This is not a bug; if you want the files on a Windows filesystem to be
owned by someone other than root, you have to pass the uid mount option.

Title:
  after mounting windows--user can not browse files

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I mounted my windows partition using "sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt" and
  afterward went to browse the windows partition to copy some files over
  to my linux partition.  But, it said i do not have permission to
  access the windows partition and since the root userid is not standard
  with ubuntu i am stuck.  Before when i mounted the windows partition
  it allowed a regular user to access it.
