UFS (data) partition is auto mounting but becoming root owned after every reboot

[security_lover]

I have a separate spinning disk which I use to store data only. I used chown command to gain write permission as normal user (not root) but after every reboot the permissions are getting changed. The owner is back to root. I can't write anything.
How to I make the permissions to persist ?

This is the only major remaining issue other the bluetooth that I am facing. If anyone knows how to fix this please reply.

I added the partition of /etc/fstab & now its a weird situation. Please see attachment.

Code: Select all

> cat /etc/fstab
# Device		Mountpoint		FStype		Options	Dump Pass
procfs			/proc			procfs		rw		00
linprocfs		/compat/linux/proc	linprocfs	rw		00
tmpfs /compat/linux/dev/shm tmpfs rw,mode=1777 0 0
linsysfs /compat/linux/sys linsysfs rw 0 0
fdesc /dev/fd fdescfs rw 0 0
/dev/ada0p1 /home/bsd/spinning ufs     rw              0       2

having fstab to mount partition that automounts take are of not a good idea.
You should upgrade to 21.05.01.

Never done that before. How do I do that ? By downloading the new ISO and reinstalling ?

The safest way to do it is reinstalled since it is a complex upgrade, but some have done the upgrade with this https://forums.ghostbsd.org/viewtopic.php?p=9295#p9295.

Next major upgrade (13 to 14), I will have it working with the update manager.

One last question. For how long is 20.12.25 supported (The year & month) ? Or am I running a already unsupported version ?

You said :

GhostBSD is base on FreeBSD, but we don't have the same release model. GhostBSD has CI/CD approach, so the project has a rolling release approach.

So if its rolling then why the need to upgrade ?
