/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows vfat rw,noauto,user,uid=512,gid=1002 1 2 ^ ^ really really bad idea -------------------------------------|-|
If you say so. Did I mention I was a newbie? I'm a newbie. I only put in the 1 and 2 because that's what another guy on this list told me to do. I have no idea what they mean.
filesystem does not need to be dumped (field 5) and not need fsck'ing (field 6) - it is vfat right?
If vfat is the same as fat32, then yes.
I'm a little scared to go ahead with this, because I don't want to lose any more data. If I change the last two numbers, will I at least be safe from having Linux try and make changes to the hard drive?
