I'm running FC5 and gnome on a machine dual booting with Windows and would like to read from/write to a Windows vfat partition. I've added this line to /etc/fstab: /dev/sdb1 /mnt/win vfat rw,noatime,uid=500,gid=500,user 0 0 Then, also as root: mkdir /mnt/win chmod 777 /mnt/win In linux, I can now read from the /mnt/win directory but can't write to it without root privileges. How should I set the privileges on this directory so that I can write to it as a user? Are the mount parameters in fstab correct? Thanks for the help! --Jerry
