    [SOLVED] Extra 512GB NVMe won't mount as user (only root)

    I upgraded the 512GB NVMe in my Dell laptop, and because my desktop motherboard has spots for three of these NVMe's, I figured why not and get some extra room.

    Kubuntu is NOT mounted to this, its just there as an extra partition.

    I mounted the partition like I do the others (/run/media/scott/$NAME) and the partition only mounts as root. I can't get the chmod to work to switch it to user.

    I edited the fstab to mount the NVMe to mount like my other partitions.

    All the other partitions have no problems mounting as user.

    Is it something unique to NVMe's?

    Use chown to change ownership:

    Code:
     sudo chown scott:scott /full/path/to/the/mount/point
    There is nothing special in this regard for nvme drives.

    And why are you using /run/ to mount things? Just use /media/scott/$NAME

      I must have missed something in the command, that worked. Thanks!
