Des Kinsman Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 I have configured my /sda1 fat32 drive so I can share between Mandriva and XP except...............I can't write to it from Mandriva. Here is the /fstab :- /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0 /dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c ntfs umask=0,nls=iso8859-15,ro 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/sda1 /mnt/sharedrive vfat exec,users,rw,umask=022 0 0 /dev/hda2/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap defaults 0 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arctic Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Replace your sda1 entry with /dev/sda1 /mnt/sharedrive vfat iocharset=utf8,umask=000 0 0 Hope that works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arctic Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Huh? Then revert it to the old value, except for the umask part. Leave umask=000 as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
