How to mount/umount disk in console to get the same result as nautilus?

Question

In nautilus, a disk can be mounted by mouse click, the results are

• format(NTFS) is recognized correctly
• read/write are permitted by non-root user

You can also umount a disk without root permission in nautilus.

How to simulate these mount/umount operations in nautilus with shell commands?

Answer 1

I belive Nautilus uses udisks for things like removable media:

udisks --mount /dev/sdc1

Use man udisks for several other commands.

Answer 2

Nautilus uses gvfs to mount those locations. From the command line:

gvfs-mount smb://server/share mountpoint

Answer 3

You can use pmount, an application that allows normal users to mount removable devices:

pmount /dev/sda2 mydevice
