Hi,

Here's a strange one...

I use 2 partitions for Windows 98, hda1 and hda5. I set both up as type
"c" (fat32 LBA) during my gentoo installation, using fdisk. The entries
in /etc/fstab are almost identical:

/dev/hda1    /mnt/win_c    vfat    umask=0,noexec      0 0
/dev/hda5    /mnt/win_d    vfat    umask=0,noexec      0 0

Any of the mask entries correspond to octal permission; therefore, they need to be three-digit numbers. I recommend 022 (rwxr-xr-x), but I assume you want 000 (rwxrwxrwx). Don't forget to set uid and gid or else only root will have access to the files!
