You are not telling it who owns all the files. FAT has no concept of users, groups, or other attributes (aside from RW and RO). You must specify the UID or GID (uding gid=xxxx) you want assigned to all files on the file system when it is mounted. /dev/hda7 /mnt/d vfat rw,user,uid=1000,noexec 0 0 -Roberto ___________________________________________________ Yahoo!
