    Write permission denied

    I know there are command line ways to check this - but why can't I do it the GUI way?

    What I have done is this:

    Create new partition for data (hdg4).
    Open System Settings -> Advanced -> Disk and file system.
    Log in as administrator, highlight hdg4, New.

    Mount as /data in my ~/home/nils1 directory, check the write permission box and mount at start box.

    But when I try writing to or moving files here - Access denied; I have to start any program with root permission.

    Is it possible to fix this in any GUI way?

    Yes and no.

    Yes; you can do it from the right-click properties in Konqueror.

    No; you'll first have to start Konqueror up as root and that's done from the command line... :P

      Tried that in Dolphin - did not stick over reboot. Hope this is not "by default".
