HD permission problems
 
I just mounted both of my FAT32 drives to /mnt/hdb and /mnt/hdc

but... i can't get the permissions changed EVEN when i'm logged in as root... it will either say I don't have permission or it will seem like it worked, until I view the permissions again which have reverted back to the originals.

Any thoughts?

RTFM. Just kidding :).

What you need to do is use the -o option, like so:

Code:
$ mount -o uid=rkef /dev/hda1 /path/to/mountdir
Replace "rkef" with your uid.

HTH.
