Sigh.

I don't know. I'm a bit frustrated and need a little help. I've installed Slackware 9 and have been using it ok for the last few months. But I have noticed one little thing that I've been doing a slow work around for but now have run into a problem when trying to install Wine.

My laptop has Win98 and Slack installed. Slack uses reiserfs. When reiserf mounts the windows partition, perms end up being 744. So, this means my regular user (which is what I usually log in with), cannot get into or view files in the windows partition. I've tried chmodding and using the gui to change the perms as root but nothing happens. lsattr doesn't work.

And I'm at a loss now. I cannot install wine as root and as the user I cannot get into the windows partition (which I need for a more complete install of wine).

Help?
