every time I copy or move a file from a reiserfs partition to a FAT32 partition, I get the error message 'could not change permissions for [filename]'. This is the line in fstab for this drive/partition: /dev/hdb1 /windows/F vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,users,gid=users,umask=0002,code=437 0 0 Although I get the error message, the file gets copied anyway. I use SUSE8.1 or WinXP on this box. I am not sure what is going on, but I suspect the permission is set incorrectly for this windows partition?
I get this all the time when I drag/drop with Konqueror. I suppose one could dig into the Konqueror config and silence the message, but it is too close to my nap time. :-) -AD
