Yes, possibly your /etc/fstab. The line descibing the FAT partition
shall mount the partition. Furthermore, it is wise to let fstab
take care of permissions right on mounting. You can do this by
adding a statement to fstab, like "umask=0" which equals chmod 777.
Mine looks like this :
/dev/hda4 /data vfat umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850 0 0
If in doubt, please post your fstab.
