Editing the /etc/fstab question...


LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda9 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
/dev/hda6 /mnt/fat32 vfat rw


This is my /etc/fstab.
Can I add something to the last line to allow all users write access?
The way it is now only allows reading. Unless logged as root.

The following line will give write and execute access to users.
Code:
/dev/hda6 /mnt/fat32 vfat user,rw,exec,umask=000 0 0
