Alan,

I just remembered that I did not show/tell you how you can make your Fat32 
partion writable.

There may be others who could tell us better or different ways but this is 
what I did.....

In your /etc/fstab file you will have a line like.....
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1 vfat,ext3,ext2,reiserfs users,exec 0 0
comment it out so it looks like....
#/dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1 vfat,ext3,ext2,reiserfs users,exec 0 0

then add a line above it like this.....
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1 vfat defaults,umask=000 0 0

That's it.

If you want a link to it in your home directory you could, in a terminal 
window, type, for example....
ln -s /mnt/hda2 /home/Alan/fat32

HTH, Robert
