Mount a ramdisk with user permission












1















I try to mount a ramdisk which does not require root permission to work with.
I used



sudo mount ramfs -t ramfs /media/typicalramdisk/


Which requires root.
So, I tried:



sudo mount ramfs -t ramfs /media/typicalramdisk/ -o umask=777,gid=1000,uid=1000


but it didn't help. I received gid and uid via id -g and id -u.




  • I do not like using fstab.


  • I do not like using chmod as I think mount should be able to do that.



Is there still any solution?
