kenton Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 MDK 10.1 Community I've got a SerialATA hard drive with an NTFS and FAT32 partition. The NTFS stays mounted just fine, but the FAT32 won't stay mounted after a reboot. I tried putting "/dev/sdb1 fat32 /mnt/hd umask=0 0 0" in my /etc/fstab (that may not be what I put, but I looked at the other entries and made it EXACTLY like theres except for fat32 and umask=0 but it won't stay. What line do I need to put in fstab to make this work. /dev/sdb1 = the partition I want /mnt/hd = mount location I want all users to be able to r/w/x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 /dev/sba1 /mnt/hd vfat umask=0 0 0 Try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmpatrick Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 Mr T, you've got a typo. The partition in question is /dev/sdb1. Try this for your fstab entry: /dev/sdb1 /mnt/hd vfat defaults,umask=0 0 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was attempting from memory, something I should not do! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
