Mounting DOS drive to Linux

[Jerry Feldman]

Here is my setting for Windows partitions:
/dev/hda1       /windoz/c            vfat            rw,noauto,user,exec 0  
0
Make sure your kernel is configured for vfat. The options 
rw,noauto,user,exec,
are essentially, read/write, do not mount at boot time, allow non-root 
users to mount, allow binaries to execute.
