Hello everyone,

I have a fat32 partition on another drive /dev/hda5
which is listed in /etc/fstab like this:

/dev/hda5  /home/blissfix/fat vfat auto,user o o

But as user I have no access, only as root.

cat /proc/mounts reveals:

/dev/hda5 /home/blissfix/fat vfat
rw,nodiratime,nosuid,nodev,noexec,fmask=0033,dmask=0033
0 0

not sure what this means but even as root chown gives:

chown: Changing ownership of '/home/blissfix/fat/*':
operation not permitted.

BTW, /home is part of my root partition:

/dev/hdb3  / reiserfs noatime 0 1
