Thank you Roger,
But this is what i get with pmount (i use the desktop profile) :

guy at pcplat53:~$ pmount /dev/sdb1
guy at pcplat53:~$ pumount /dev/sdb1
guy at pcplat53:~$ schroot -c precise
(precise)guy at pcplat53:~$ pmount /dev/sdb1
Error: could not open fstab-type file: No such file or directory
(precise)guy at pcplat53:~$

This is ok with the host but not with the schroot
