Subject: automount vfat partition
Hello,
I want to have my vfat partition to be mounted at startup,
but if I put auto in fstab root becomes the owner of that
partition and it is not writable for user.
Currently I have this in /etc/fstab
/dev/hdb5 /mnt/dwin vfat
auto,user,exec,nosuid,async,rw,quiet,uni_xlate,iocharset=koi8-
r,codepage=866
0 0
what should I change here to make it user-writable after automount?
thanks in advance

Automount and what goes in fstab are two separate entities. Automounted
file systems are controlled by the automount daemon (service autofs)
And are typically controlled by the file /etc/auto.master (do an ls
/etc/auto.*) Automount is typically used for remote file shares (like
network shares). Whereas fstab is used for local partitions. What
command are you running to mount /mnt/dwin and who are you running that
command as?
