FC4 and partition permissions
I just installed fedora core 4 onto my pc where I have a couple of
fat32 partitions. Previously the partitions could be read/written by
any user but now they are listed as root:root drwxr-xr-x and not even
root can change this with chmod, chgrp and etc.
I didn't think vfat had permissions to worry about. So why can I write
to these partitions and how can I make it so? Any ideas?
fstab extract... (which seems to be maintained by fstab-sync on FC4)
/dev/hda5 /d_win vfat defaults 0 0
ls -l output...
drwxr-xr-x 22 root root 16384 Jan 1 1970 d_win
chown: changing ownership of `d_win': Operation not permitted
chmod outputs no error but does nothing
What other info can I tell you?
