I have a notebook with dual XP and Debian with a shared
partition of type "vfat".
In linux I want it to be auto mounted rw for all
users. I put in /etc/fstab the line
/dev/hdc3 /mnt/shared vfat auto,users,exec 0 0
This way /mnt/shared is owned by root and permissions
can't be changed (becouse of vfat, I guess...)
to make the directory tree available to all.
I NEED IT TO BE RW FR ALL USERS. Any Idea ?
Logged in as non root user, I see as undefined all desktop
shortcuts relying on files in /mnt/shared becouse of the access
denied.
I can then (as non root user) umount/remount ("users" option in mount)
the partition and get it rw,
but the desktop icons are not refreshed upon request (this is a bug of
kde,
I suppose).
So I need one of these options working:
- automount from /etc/fstab or similar in rw for all (preferred)
- mount partition after a user is logged in BUT BEFORE THE DESKTOP is
composed to get /mnt/shared be owned by the current user and the
desktop icons be correctly displayed (I tried Xsession, /etc/profile,
) but no result
Any help appreciated
