Windows partition not read-write under Slackware Linux
 

I first tried "chmod a+rx" on the mount directory, then tried adding "user" as one of the options in fstab. When the system boots, write and executable permisions are missing for normal users. Help :(

what does it say when you boot?
is it readable writable for root?

hey i'm a poet

The partition is read-write for root

you will need to add
umask=000 to the options in fstab. Concretely, something like
/dev/hdb2 /mnt/win vfat auto,quiet,umask=000 0 0
will give rw-access to everyone.

Thanks for all your help.:)
