i have a separate hard drive with windows on it and I want to move the backup to it. But i dont know how to set the permissions or fstab to be able to write to it. i cant write to it either as my regular user or root
can anyone tell me what to do?
in fstab: /dev/hda2 /c vfat rw,user,umask=000 and you can write to it as user as well as root -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
