[NTLUG:Discuss] How To Find Out Free Disk Space

[Hugh Brown]

The problem probably stems from the fact that Fat partitions don't know
about ownership/permissions.  So, if you can get it to work as root but
not as a regular user that will indicate the permissions issue (i.e.
XCDroast can't write to the Fat partition).  If that is the case then
changing the permissions with which the partition is mounted will fix
that (man fstab and man mount).

FWIW
