Hey guys, I just created a new partition on my SUSE box with YaST named as /Backup and with filesystem ext3. Now the problem is that only root can write on it whereas i want to give the permissions to normal users (which is me, root is also me). What should I do. This partition was created to store all my important stuff. Please help.The id of the partition is /dev/sda2 and is primary partition it is mounted at /Backup.
