LiThIuM Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 ok, after following the directions on ubuntuguide.org i've managed to get my drives mounted successfully. the problem i'm having is figuring out what i'm doing wrong in the fstab so that when my fat32 drive mounts, it'll allow files to be written to it, as well as the drive being read. i can achieve the mount with write access through inputting the following command through the root terminal: mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/mydata/ -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8,umask=000 the following is the entry for the drive in the fstab: /dev/hdb1 /media/mydata vfat iocharset=utf8,umask=000 0 0 any help is greatly appreciated...and thanks to kevcart3 for the prior help!
