Can't write to vfat and ntfs partitions
 

Why hell I can't write to either /mnt/win_c (vfat) nor to /mnt/win_d (ntfs) partitions?
It is chmoded 777 yet I can't copy files from /home
Is it someting up to the fstab files?

It could be because you're not in root....I had the same problem before and that was what was causing it for me. As I am a complete novice though, I could be wrong

Linux can't write to NTFS succesfully yet......... - for FAT32 though modify the relevant line to:

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

(substitue in your partition name)

weird. doesn't help.
Here is my fstab:
/dev/hda5 /mnt/win_d vfat umask=0 0 0,defaults 0 0

Here is my mtab:
/dev/hda5 /mnt/win_d vfat rw 0 0
:confused:

I try to paste a public_html from /home and I get Could not make directory /mnt/win_c/public_html

btw, I even cant change permissions for /mnt/win_c or win_d

Is the windows partitions (\c,\d, etc) share?

no.

I moved this discussion to:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...039#post596039

it is dealing with exactly the same problem.

You said in your 1st post that /mnt/win_c was VFAT and /mnt/win_d was NTFS -

now youve got

/dev/hda5 /mnt/win_d vfat umask=0 0 0,defaults 0 0

a VFAT on /mnt/win_d ?

again - for a VFAT filesystem use

umask=000,defaults

in the 4th field of fstab like I mentioned before...
