Can't write to my FAT32 Drive only read!
 
I can't write or save to my FAT32 drive I can only read. Is this something to do with "Permissions"? and how do I change it

Thanks in advance

Try setting "umask=0000" as an option in your /etc/fstab entry. Then unmount and mount the partition again.

Have you mounted it correctly ? - you'll have to post your /etc/fstab file - a typical line would look like this

/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows vfat defaults,umask=000 0 0

Again - post your /etc/fstab file so I can have a look.
