[SOLVED] Mount permissions with pcmanfm and openbox

I installed arch linux with xorg, openbox and pcmanfm. When I try to mount any external drive I get a message that says "only the administrator is allowed to do this"
Any solution? Thank you.

Re: [SOLVED] Mount permissions with pcmanfm and openbox

Are we talking about a USB key, or are we talking about a rotating disk ?
What interface are you using?  Is it a USB, FireWire, SATA?
If it is a USB, what gets added to the output of dmesg when you connect it?  How about the journal?
Please post your /etc/fstab

I installed udiskie.

udiskie:

Re: [SOLVED] Mount permissions with pcmanfm and openbox

The problem is on the fstab:

/dev/sdb1           	/         	ext4      	rw,relatime,data=ordered	0 1

change to:

/dev/sda1           	/         	ext4      	rw,relatime,data=ordered	0 1
