Automount fat32 permissions

[celticbhoy]

I have aet a fat32 partition to automount setting up fstab as :-

/dev/sda5 /media/SHARED default 0 0

the patition automounts, but it has root permissions, how do I fix this ?

[scragar]

/dev/sda5 /media/SHARED vfat sync,nodev,nosuid,user,rw,auto 0 0

Oh, sorry I never actually explained on that line, that should be added to your /etc/fstab file, some parts of it can be left off, they are actually unneeded since they are defaults, like sync, rw and auto, but specify them anyway, just to be sure.

gksu gedit /etc/fstab

Delete the current line and add that one in it's place.

I'm having the same problem but modifying the code didn't help. Is there anything else I can try?
