Hi P.T. Nevada,
My fstab line for windoze drive reads:
/dev/hda1 /windows/C vfat user,noauto 0 0
I assume the 'user' entry is the most interesting one.

This is a good one for you as to how SuSE did this. By accident and trying anything I could think of, I unmounted the drives as root. When I done this and clicked on the icon as user, the directories and files showed up and I could read and write to the drives. The default installation had the drives mounted as both root and user. Since root has control, I could see the contents of the drive as root, but not as user. I do consider this a bug in the installation program. Thanks for the ideas that was presented. Paul T.
