Is there any option with mount command to give write permission to non-root user
I have to add a new disk to few systems with same specs. I have followed many tutorials to create FS and mount. But I have facing one problem. I want my disk should be mounted at boot time and a specific user "user1" should be able to write in this disk. Is there any option available in mount options I know I can use chmod command for this purpose. Following was the statement that I have added in /etc/fstab
UUID=f548e157-333b-434a-8ad1-832a97c0d766 /mnt/ssd1 ext4 defaults 0 2
This statement mount the new disk at boot time but the "user1" cannot write in this mount point. My OS is Ubuntu 18.04.
Here are the few references that I have following but could not found the solution

See mount(8) - Linux manual page the section titled Non-superuser mounts. Beyond mounting, simple Unix filesystem permissions apply. As long as the user owns the file or directory or belongs to the group with read/write permission, the user will be able to write to the mount.

See mount(8) - Linux manual page the section titled Non-superuser mounts. Beyond mounting, simple Unix filesystem permissions apply. As long as the user owns the file or directory or belongs to the group with read/write permission, the user will be able to write to the mount.
