This one has me stumped. I have changed my fstab to mount /dev/hdb4 with all the options I know how. I've done an su root and tried chmod 777 (user) but I get nothing and chown (user) /D but it says "chown: changing ownership of `/D': Operation not permitted"
nothing seems to allow me to take control of my own mount!


/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/hdb4 /D vfat rw,auto,users,exec 0 0
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom1 auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,fscontext=system_ubject_r:removable_t,managed 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,fscontext=system_ubject_r:removable_t,managed 0 0

try to set user and groupid for accessing ur mount

Update:

I just read another thread where a user was having the same type of problem he changed his mount in fstab to read:

user,gid=users,umask=0002 0 0

He was using NTFS and I was using VFAT but I figured what the heck it worked for him. I added an rw to mine so it reads:

/dev/hdb4 /D vfat rw,user,gid=users,umask=0002 0 0

and now it works...now I just have to read up on 'unmask' to figure out what it REALLY does

Thanks again
