    I have set up my 120G AA1 with Linpus, Ubuntu, and XP, plus and additional 15G partition forf shared data formated to Fat 32. The only problem is how to mount this partition in Linpus.

    add the line :

    /dev/sda? /mnt/your_mount_point vfat noauto,umask=000 0 0

    ( where /dev/sda? is the partition device ( you can find it with ' fdisk -l ' ) and /mnt/your_mount_point
    is the directory you have to create to mount to the partition ) to your /etc/fstab.
    Then give as root
    'mount /mnt/your_mount_point'

    yes, in the line above change "noauto,umask=000" with "auto,umask=000"

    /dev/sda? /mnt/your_mount_point vfat auto,umask=000 0 0
