I have a partition that I need standard users (not administrators)to have read/write access to. However, this partition does not even appear to them as it does to me as an administrator. How can I make it so that standard users can read/write to this partition? It would be nice if they could have the ability to mount it if needed.

I have the same problem with removable media - if I have a flash card in the computer, the standard users cannot see this storage media.
