Hi All,

I am assuming you want to create a no-windows configuration yes/no? When I say no it asks me to create the configuration file manually.


/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0

For a user to have read/write access, you should do something like this, putting in your own user uid and gid (from the files /etc/passwd and /etc/group).


/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,uid=501,gid=501 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0

However, are you really sure you want to do that? I strongly recommend that you create a "fake" windows install, and just copy over any files you want from the real Windows. Otherwise, you risk messing up the real Windows.
