User permissions for an ext2 partition



Hi Debian gurus,

I have a data partition mounted in /data. I want to read and write
the whole partition as a regular user. What should I put into my
/etc/fstab?

Right now I have:
_______________/etc/fstab___________________________________________
# <file system><mount point>	<type>	<options>	<dump>	<pass>

/dev/hda9 / 		   ext2	defaults,errors=remount-ro    	0	1

/dev/hda10	none		swap	sw	                       		   0	0

proc	    /proc		proc	defaults		                  	0	0

/cdrom    /cdrom		supermount fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom   0  0

/floppy   /floppy		supermount fs=vfat,dev=/dev/fd0        0  0

/dev/hda6 /home      ext2 rw		                         	0	2

/dev/hda7 /usr/local ext2 rw		                         	0	2

/dev/hda8 /mandrake  ext2 rw		                        	0	2

/dev/hda1 /win       vfat user,showexec,quiet,umask=0 0 0

/dev/hda5 /data      ext2  rw  0 2
______________________________________________________________________

The last line is the partition I want to read and write as a normal
user. Just like what I did with /dev/hda1, the umask option solves
this issue, but that is only for fat partitions. What is the
equivalent for ext2?

Thanks in advance. -- Viktor
