permissions on FAT drive
Dual boot MDV 10.2 and Wxp
hda1 - NTFS with Wxp
hda2 - FAT32
hdb1 -/ MDV 10.2
hdb6 -/home
Created new device on MDV desktop using GUI. /dev/hda2 mounted at /mnt/win_d on desktop, named it FATshare so I can work on files from Wxp and MDV.
Moved some files from hdb6/home to hda2 because hdb is a small disk. Fairly certain I was able to read and write to this device. Now however, I am able to copy FROM but not MOVE FROM or WRITE TO the hda2 dev. "Access denied".
I have tried security in MCC at standard AND high.
Have tried setting permissions in MCC for /dev and for /mnt but no dice.
Have tried to set permissions for /mnt/win_d using chmod in console. Also, files in this device are readonly. If I drag them back out of this device onto desktop then the permissions change, allowing me to work on them.
Read in another post that umask in fstab should be set to 0. Did that and worked temporarily but now back to no access even tho umsk=0. Here's fstab:
This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details
/dev/hdb1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/hdb6 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0022,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0
none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=ext2:vfat,--,umask=0022,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c ntfs umask=0022,nls=iso8859-1,ro 0 0
/dev/hda2 /mnt/win_d vfat umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb5 swap swap defaults 0 0
This has to be a permissions setting that I am missing somewhere.
Any help appreciated
Thanks
