debian sid, 2.6.7-1-k7 .
got an external 250gb hard drive with fat32 filesystem (created in Linux
with fdisk), connected via usb2.
the mount command is :
mount -t vfat -o rw,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=437 /dev/xxx /mnt/xxx
root can cd into the directory, create files, delete files, modify what
he created., and chmod existing files.
on the other hand, he cannot chown existing files, but he can modify
them (edit and save).
the files were copied to the disk using my computer at work, running
windows 2000 server. files mode
is set to "-rwxr--r--" .
what am i missing here ??
FAT no matter what version does not support owners :) only attributes like R, W,
Hidden and Directory :)
