i had a similar problem, i created a seperate group for fat & ntfs users (owner is root if not set with uid), and added following lines to fstab
/dev/hda2 /mnt/ntfs ntfs ro,gid=winusers,umask=0222 0 0 /dev/hda5 /mnt/vfat vfat rw,gid=winusers,umask=0002 0 0

I'm using the default destop/window manager for FC1 (gnome? nautilus?) It has placed icons on the desktop for non-ext3 disk partitions (FAT32 and NTFS). How do I tell my system not to display these icons? I want the partitions mounted, I just do not want the icons on my desktop.
Thanks!
