Solved [Solved] FUSE permissions question

Hi there,

I installed FreeBSD a few days ago alongside my Linux installation. I like FreeBSD a lot and intend to keep it. I have a large data partition formatted in ext4 (I might reformat as ZFS but that's for another day) and it seems that I can use ext4fuse to read my data there. I installed the port, loaded the kernel module and issue as su: ext4fuse /dev/ada1s1 /mnt/slackware. It seems to mount (it's there and no errors issued). But I cannot open the directory as user. It seems to be a permissions issue - is there something I need to do to the permissions on my data drive to enable my FreeBSD user to read the data there via ext4fuse?

Thanks in advance for any help.
 
Re: FUSE permissions question

I copied over what I needed as root on the command line - it's a good enough workaround until I get round to building a ZFS module for Slackware. I thought I might be able to read files direct via Caja (I'm using MATE) but this way is OK too. It might be all that was intended by the author.

Thanks for reading.
