Hello,

man fstab

and you'll see that if you add : umask=000 as an option, you'll be
able to write to your partitions.

/dev/hda1            /media/dosc       vfat         auto,rw,users,exec,umask=000    0 0
/dev/hda8            /media/dose       vfat         auto,rw,users,exec,umask=000    0 0

Michel.
