cannot write on mounted partition
hi.
i have a vfat partition for files that is shared by a windows partition and fedora 7. i already have edited fstab to somehow automount that partition. however, i still mount it every time. and after i mount it, i cannot write on the partition (copying files from my home directory). here is cat output of fstab: LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/sda5 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/sda2 /media/sharedfat vfat default,users,rw 0 0 am i missing something? i know defaults should be rw. but its no help. so i included rw in the options. anyway, it still wont let me copy to it. |
Try to replace "users,rw" with umask=000 to the vfat partition in fstab, or just try it out with mount -o umask=000 /dev/sda2 /media/sharedfat.
