I have 2 fat drives (dualbooting windows) i want to mount correctly in fstab so my one user and root will have access on startup, so i dont have to mount these again....

What do i write in fstab???

I don't know what distro you're using, but try something like:

/dev/hda1 /mnt/disk2 vfat auto,users 0 0

Means:

Mount hardisk 1 at partition 1 at mountpoint /mnt/disk2 with filesystem fvat, automatically at boot, and users are able to mount this device.

Hope this helps,

Here is an example for /etc/fstab:

the 'uid' and 'gid' are the user-id, and group-id numbers. Use "id <username>" to get the value of a certain user, or inspect /etc/passwd and /etc/group yourself.

The umask the inverse of a file mask. (it's a mask )
0 = all allowed
1 = no execute (file) or browse (directories)
2 = no write
4 = no read
2 + 4 = 6 = no read+write

the fmask and dmask doesn't seam to work though for some reason, the files at the vfat drive are always marked as executable. (that's why I have the 'noexec' flag enabled too)

"man fstab" (console), or "man:fstab" (konqueror) could be a great help too

Well i think ill try both of the solutions on 2 differents fat drives...

thx for the help guys..
