Apparently, when you create a FAT32 partition during installation Linux mounts the partition as readonly. Or more specifically, doesn't give permissions for any other user. This makes sense. Editing the appropriate line in /etc/fstab adding my userid with rw permissions, un-mounting, and then remounting seemed to do the trick.
