Since FAT32 has no concept of users and only a rudimetary concept of file
meta-data (permission bits, etc) all files will be owned by the owner of
the directory on which it is mounted. You can make the entire filesystem
contents own by one particular user and/or group. Read mount_msdos(8)
HTH,
In the last episode (Oct 26), David Gerard said:

OK, got disk up. (Problem was I didn't know its make. ad3s1 eventually
worked.)
Now it seems I can't make it writable by anyone but root:
diva# ls -l viv.html
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1987 Jul 4 05:21 viv.html
diva# chmod g+w viv.html
diva# ls -l viv.html
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1987 Jul
