a.
PS - Could I use chown adagilson /windows/G to gain permission to write do this windows partition? because "root" is the owner but I didn't achieve, using Kuser, to set permission for user adagilson. Also, I tried chmod +w /windows/G, as root, but nothing happens :( The same for chmod 777 /windows/G.
Erm, no, for this you need to edit the permissions in the /etc/fstab file. I'm not sure of the exact details because I have no Windows drives to deal with, but looking at man fstab and man mount will give you pointers - reading the docs is very much the right way to learn these things. You want to look at the umask option in the mount man-page (under mount options for fat) (arround line 600) btw: please respond to list posts on-list, so followups (like this) can be seen by all.
