I've been trying to get a dos partition mounted in group 'dos', with read-write permissions for those in this group. I found an old thread on this, and now have:
/dev/hda1 /mnt vfat unmask=0002,gid=101,uid=0,showexec 0 2 in fstab, (where 101 is dos gid). However, the drive mounts with permissions: drwxr_xr_x I tried adding suid to the options (the unmounted permissions of /mnt are rwx for group), but this doesn't work, and I can't even chmod the permissions as root. If I type chmod --verbose g+w /mnt it claims to have changed the permissions, but doesn't actually. Can anyone please help me. Thanks in advance Rich
