I want to be able to write to a VFAT partition as a "regular" user but haven't figured out how to do so. I mount the partition with this line in the /etc/fstab file: /dev/hda5 /mnt/FAT vfat defaults 0 0 The mount point looks like this: drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 16384 Dec 31 1969 /mnt/FAT When I try to make the the mount point group-writable with "chmod 775 /mnt/FAT", I get this result: chmod: changing permissions of `/mnt/Xtra-FAT' (requested: 0775, actual: 0755): Operation not permitted Is there a way to allow regular users to write to a VFAT partition?
