Hello Mursalin,

M>     i have mounted my fat pertion. for that purpose i added some
M> lines in /etc/fstab. they all works well. but the problem is that
M> only root can write to that partitions.
M>     i want that users have write permission on a perticular
M> directory of the mounted partition.
M>     can i do that? how?
M>     thanks in advance.

FAT does not store permissions on files and directories.  What you
can do is change the permissions of the mount point.  That will
give read/write/execute permissions to the whole partiotion...but not
to specific files on it.  This is a disadvantage of the FAT
partiotion.

Best regards,
