Use something else for that, not /opt. Just make up some directory
name, unmount /opt, re-mount the FAT32 partition under the new
directory, and then leave /opt alone.
indeed. in some filename/directory standard or another who's name
escapes me, /opt is the standard place to install non-core distribution
software packages ... linux people often use /usr/local for this, but
/usr/local is intended for site specific stuff, which software packages
really aren't.
