When I auto mount the windows partition in vfat using fstab, it will only have write access for root only. How do I make this so everyone can write?

Please search the JL forums for 'fstab users vfat' as this question is asked and answered quite often.

Have you tried changing owner to users? In your /etc/fstab file.

Maybe put an EXTRA large disclaimer before a person is able to hit submit for a new posting?

Did you search before posting?

Are you sure?

Are you really sure?

Think about it.
