Yes, I was root when I tried that. - -- David Benfell benfell@parts-unknown.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJP4uGYAAoJELT202JKF+xpcoYP/0OPkxYcfl8/tWNHaC3bXn8c qa5o13Jf2IHRrk/DKk7vgcy2YdxZ+Ta6ksBNyFIal1562Gk5xfT9v5CfUFqhK8WG eAjepc8/9jKFU9OfY1iVI3Kmioc+QoI4uiAuisbXoVtS8wTMy8Cl6iKF/KbcJa7q yx/lvhulabx8fQtX10nthTLKOVxgOPdXNY4Id3x3+devLblo9JNpJKxDj3Ewia+k tXW874/Bn82M7xSrVG88HweL3HgDWK+M4MJnoeE5SDn6lG34hBvJfRUTxWSocFht o181T33UsfU+6bNbw3OBZN3S6UaK0VubtRNVoxZSYLFNJ4n95Ue0KcoJl0ER2NU8 IDpx3E1xREvFgdCTtl/UGlDZv6hoQZJs2U3jCJYmpwadvUhmYcV4V+OZgUyv5TT4 Cwc0KUu3xy7qUsQr8MkrXX3rMsygf3TpPMXX3F7wXMmIjZiI1nHUDsss/99vIK0I DsOPaNv3IjmNlB1bdmwdrRaTmaUF2dfZZq6OzruRtqhI4yVlZL00GbgU/M/zmXWd 6eTBfT8Y6Sv4ExJibgdu1vCA0tZCluQ8nWKu8bCfS0jCdPSaByl76hVxbzTUS3tt 3K71kGFoh9j3Ep6RAH4Kwlx3qboLnnUfhZVZ8qmWKESdamvY2uCXSGIeVqdkjnpa zOumWXOuXvfZSpoAGmNW =LTan -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

With the vfat filesystem, `chown` will not work as the filesystem does not support ownership -- the UID is given at mount time as "-o uid=".
What now?
Start by uninstalling HAL. In the archwiki article, hal is mentioned purely for its auto-mount functionality, which has been moved to udisks||udisks2 in all current desktop environments. Even if you don't use a DE, you can still use udisks{2,}, $ udisksctl mount -b /dev/disk/by-label/iPod $ udisks --mount /dev/disk/by-label/iPod or mount the iPod manually: $ sudo mkdir /media/iPod $ sudo mount /dev/disk/by-label/iPod /media/iPod -o uid=$UID In any case, the commands are exactly the same as with a generic USB pendrive. -- Mantas Mikulėnas

In my case, the iPod went into the udisks hierarchy as IPOD (all caps) so it was /dev/disk/by-label/IPOD but otherwise this appears perfect.
