[aclug-L] FAT fs on zip drive permission?

["Maverick Ven-Han, Ieong" <mluvw47@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, all

       I got a external zip, and I would like to use my disk both on
Windows and Linux. However,  I don't  how can  let the user  have rwx
access on the zip disk if it is a DOS format.

       I understood if the disk in ext2 format, just give the chmod -R
777 on the /mnt/zip should be no problem,.

        I know that if I login as root, I can have fully access on the
zip disk in dos format. But is that anyway work around. Is that anything
like  mtools or permission chanage, that work around?

        Any comments are welcome.  TIA.
