aMule and Fat32
« on: July 15, 2005, 03:12:15 AM »
My incoming and temp dirs are on a FAT32 partition. When starting aMule suggests me to
"disable chmod to suppress warnings". What does this mean exactly.
I´ve mounted the partition with "users,gid=users,umask=0002" in /etc/fstab

its just that aMule will not try to set unix like permissions when files are done,
since FAT32 does not support that..its windows you cannot have unix permissions on fat...

So I don´t have to do anything here?
The german translation tells me to "do something"

!?

poste the german translation here ;) I guess I can fiugre it out  :]
but probably I am going to fix the translation then ;)

since there is no need todo anything, aMule cannot set the file permissions because they dont work on Fat32, so it just tells you about it....
