it works to get the /dev/hdg3 on my user name....
but it seems I still can't get to write/modify anything in that partition!
here is what I did, as root:
chown -R nitto:nitto /dev/hdg3
so, when I do:
ls -l /dev/hdg*
I get:
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 34, 0 Aug 10 20:11 /dev/hdg
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 34, 1 Aug 10 20:11 /dev/hdg1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 34, 2 Aug 11 00:11 /dev/hdg2
brw-rw---- 1nitto nitto 34, 3 Aug 11 00:11 /dev/hdg3
brw-rw---- 1 root root 34, 4 Aug 10 20:11 /dev/hdg4
but I still can't write/modify to hdg3, which is where the /data partition is!
cheers

You want to change ownership of the mount point not the device. 
So if you mount the data partition to ~/data make sure you own the mount point. |

well no, not exactly
just to be able to use the /dev/hdg3 as much as I like... like creating/modifying files and folders in it.
The mount point is owned by the root, right? so how can I get the read/write rights to it? |

feeling like a n**b...
being a newbie and all
suppose to "chown" the /data directory. whereas I was trying to "chown" the whole partition (ie /dev/hdg3)
so, just for the record (to help anyone else who may have this problem)
chown -R nitto:nitto /data
a fair understanding of how Linux file system works (as oppose to windows!) is a good thing :-> |

... which was what mzilikazi meant about changing the ownership of the mount point. If /dev/hdg3 is mounted on /data at that point, the "-R" option also chowns everything inside the mount point, i.e. /dev/hdg3. Knowing these commands can be very helpful when using linux.  |

still on that topic...:
does it work with Linux notion to have the "/data" mount point named with a long folder name, such as "/My Documents" and put it on the "/home/user_name/Desktop" as a permanent fixture? |

Well, to view the contents of a folder in kde you'll use konqueror. So you just need to create a launcher on your desktop that launches konqueror showing the contents of /data - something like "konqueror file:/data". And you can name the launcher "My Documents". I don't use kde and so cannot give you the proper konqueror command - I think there is a switch as a file browser and a web browser. In xfce, "thunar /data" works well. You can also install thunar. It's pretty cool.
You can also create a link file (like alias in windows) in your home folder, like:
ln -s /data MyDocs
So when you click MyDocs (which will show when you click on your "home" icon), /data opens. |

Instead of links and such, you could choose to mount any partition to any mount point. See my example:
Code:
/dev/sda13 /home/mzilikazi/Music reiserfs auto,rw,users 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /home/mzilikazi/cam vfat noauto,rw,users 0 0
/dev/sda3 /home/mzilikazi/Photos reiserfs auto,rw,users 0 0
