Hi,
How can I give a normal user permission to mount my M$ partition? I
added this line:
/dev/hda1 /Windows vfat user 0 0
to my /etc/fstab, but when I try to mount it, I get this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] klaus $ mount /dev/hda1 /Windows
mount: only root can do that



Only specify the device or the mount point. Let it look in fstab to figure out what to do.

$ mount /Windows

Also, do you want to allow read/write access to the Windows partition?


Yes.

It's easy to set it read-only, or to set the uid of all files to 0.


Stupid question: how do I do this?

Additionally, add the noauto option to keep it from being mounted at boot.



Thanks everybody! Now I can mount it as user, but I still can't browse it. :-(
