OK, I've scoured the archives for an answer with no results. I'm
sharing a FAT32 partition between XP and 6.2 Release. The problem is I
can mount the drive but only root can write to it (users can just
read). I have the following in fstab:
/dev/asd42 /mydos msdosfs rw 0 0
I've tried adding the -u or -g option with no luck. I understand that
since FAT has no inherent permissions chmod has no effect either (tried
it just to be sure) so it must be set from fstab. Any help?
Thanks!
M.G.
