I had covered this issue lately in the WIKI.

Either you install submount or supermount.
The mandrake distribution comes default with supermount

http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/TipsAndTricks#head-1d05cdb982531dee65b0f3d20548b880722069ae

Submount needs only a additional kernel module and some experiments with
parameters in /etc/fstab
Supermount needs a patched kernel
