I had to reinstall 8.1 due to a corruption in windows 2000 thanks to visual studio .net and a service pack install, and now my D: drive can't be mounted as a normal user.(.. the drive is fine, in windows and as root) The icon is on the desktop, when I click on it nothing is in it. The entry is in fstab. i tried to set the setuid bit, but only seem to be able to change it for the mount point not the drive in question. how do I change the permissions for a mounted drive? When i umount it i think I'm just effecting the mount point. this is the entry from fstab /dev/hda5 /windows/D vfat defaults 0 0 I had it mount through the install choice, or the partitioner. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it though. Thanks for any help offered. franklin
