Thanks! I've got a looot of reading to do . . . (although it's more interesting to talk it over?) So if a suitable umask sorts out the mounting of ntfs partitions, what's the recommended umask and fstab entries for a dvdrw,cdrw and dvdrom,cdrom? I note that Peter R has rw on this ntfs - is this needed for captive to work or what's the trick here? -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
