I might be wrong but I'm guessing you want different permissions on the |

mountpoint. |

In that case you can simply `chmod 700 /mnt/your_stick` it with ext2 (while |
| 10 |
mounted). |

ext2 stores this and will use the same permissions the next mount. |

This is true for all filesystems that support permissions (which all normal |
| 13 |
linux filesystems do) |

umask is only intended to make up for the lack of file permissions on vfat. |
