Can't access Windows hard drive through user account

[Mr_Tricorder]

I finally managed to get it to work. I just followed what it said here http://members.cox.net/laitcg/new/wp.html
except I left it "ro" instead of changing it to "rw", and now I can browse my files just fine from my normal user account.

Thank you everyone who has been helping me. I now have a better understanding of how things work in Linux.

Looks to me that fstab line adds 'suid' which means the whole partition is mounted SUID too.

not needed to get non root access to the partition, and not wise.

Ok, I removed suid from the fstab line.

I couldn't find a good description for all of these settings. I know what some of them are for, but not all of them. What exactly do they all do?

man 5 fstab

man mount
