USERS WRITING TO PARTITIONS?

[Aaron Howell]

Try
/dev/hdc4	/var/music	ext2	uid=666	1	1
(where 666 is the uid of the user you want to have write access).
With fat partitions that makes all the files on the partition appear to be owned by the uid you specify.
Not sure how you'd go with ext2 partitions though.
Regards
Aaron
