Mount FAT32 volume under Ubuntu
to mount a FAT32 volume:
- Know your harddisk name in Linux:
sudo fdisk -l
e.g. you will know your new harddisk is called /dev/sdd1 - Assume we want to mount it under /var/myhd
sudo mkdir /var/myhd - Next, mount it. The umask=0000 option allows read write for all users.
sudo mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/sdd1 /var/myhd
or
sudo mount -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8,umask=000 /dev/hda1 /media/d - It should works now!
- To unmount the disk, use:
umount /var/myhd
