General Questions • Must be Superuser to use mount

Hi Everyone

I have used autofs for the computer to recognise and mount USB thumb drives.

When I have clicked on the thumb drive icon in the file manager, the popup with the following appears;

"Unable to access location

mount: /mnt/usb-Sandisk:
must be superuser to use mount.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.

Can you advise on how this can be configured for all users to be able to mount USB's and can you recommend another way if you don't recommend autofs please.



Thank you in advance,
Michael
