i'm not quite sure whether this is what you're after but i add the following to my /etc/fstab /dev/hda3 /mnt/windows vfat umask=000 i use this for my fat32 partition on my HD, my microdrive and my memorystick for my clie. this means that i can read and write to it as any user, not just root, as default from boot up. i'm still quite new to linux (been messing around for a year and a bit or so) so if this doesn't help, ignore me! regards, andrew. psyche-list-request@redhat.com wrote: >Send Psyche-list mailing list submissions to > psyche-list@redhat.com > >To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list >or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > psyche-list-request@redhat.com > >You can reach the person managing the list at > psyche-list-admin@redhat.com > >When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific >than "Re: Contents of Psyche-list digest..." > > >Today's Topics: > > 1.
