Can't see files in a FAT32 Folder
 

Hi,

I'm a newbie and just installed Mandrake Linux 9.1. Everything seemed to be alright, but when I accessed my FAT32 drive, it opened fine but there is no file contained in it. I tried to login in as Root and accessed the folder and the files were there.

The question is, what would I do if I would want to show the files contained in FAT32 when I'm logged in as an ordinary user?

Thanks.

In the console do:
df
And
cat /etc/fstab

And post here the output of these commands, so we can help you.

Hi,

Thanks for replying, btw, this is my fstab:

/dev/hda6 / ext2 defaults 1 1
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
none /mnt/cdrom supermount dev=/dev/scd0,fs=auto,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=auto,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/hdc1 /mnt/win_c2 ntfs iocharset=iso8859-1,ro 0 0
/dev/hdd1 /mnt/win_c3 vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/hdd1 /home/jonas/MP3 vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,uid=501,gid=422,umask=007 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0

add "user,umask=000" to the options for each vfat mount. should be fine after a remount.

It did work!!! :) Thanks a lot... but one more, acid_kewpie, how do I remove those mounted disk icons in the desktop? It could be a lot better if it won't show up in the desktop, it would just make my desktop a little bit crowded. Thanks a lot, again.
