Basically I wanted to avoid another fstype-check in rebuildfstab. "auto" works pretty well, everything the kernel is aware of works OOTB. The rw becomes ro as soon as the kernel isn't sure whether rw really works. Check the syslog when mounting the device, is it *really* rw?
syslog doesn't have much to say:
Nov 3 16:56:02 grml kernel: NTFS volume version 3.1.
But
# mount ... /dev/usb-sda1 on /mnt/usb-sda1 type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0177,dmask=077,nls=iso8859-1,errors=continue,mft_zone_multiplier=1)

The latest rebuildfstab in my grml installed on hd has these entries:
LABEL=MX320G /mnt/MX320G ntfs noauto,user,dev,suid,exec,ro,umask=000,uid=tom,gid=tom 0 0 # /dev/sda1
/dev/usb-sda1 /mnt/usb-sda1 auto user,noauto,nodev,noatime,nosuid,noexec,rw,uid=tom,gid=tom 0 0
Those are the same drive.
mount /mnt/MX320G
doesn't work; it complains about no LABEL=MX320G device.
Please show output of:
# vol_id /dev/usb-sda1
when your device is available as /dev/usb-sda1. (Seems to be a problem with ntfs.)
mount /mnt/usb-sda1
does work, but I don't like the "rw" on my ntfs file system.

Here's another pair from /etc/fstab that mount a vfat fs:
LABEL=MX200G /mnt/MX200G vfat noauto,user,dev,suid,exec,umask=000,uid=tom,gid=tom 0 0 # /dev/sdb1
/dev/usb-sdb1 /mnt/usb-sdb1 auto user,noauto,nodev,noatime,nosuid,noexec,rw,uid=tom,gid=tom 0 0
Both
mount /mnt/MX200G
and
mount /mnt/usb-sdb1
work.
Thanks, seems that vfat works but ntfs causes headaches once more. :(
