[SOLVED] Problem with accessing mounted external drive as user.
Hello there.
First time Arch user here, installed it with a second try .?
As it is stated in the subject, I can't access my mounted external hard drive. It is mounted to /mnt and I can access it with root account.
User is added to 'wheel' and 'disk' groups.
OS is freshly installed.
Any more info I need to provide?

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with accessing mounted external drive as user.
What is the filesystem on the external drive? What is the ownership of the mount point? What's the ownership of the contents of the drive? What precisely do you mean by a "problem with accessing" the drive: what commands are you using and what error(s) are you getting?

Nevermind, I solved this by installing 'ntfs-3g' package. Can You mark it as solved or just delete this topic? Thanks for help.

You can mark it as solved by editing the first post and amending the topic title.
