     Below is what I have in my /etc/fstab that automatically mounts my
FAT32 formated partition.  My 'unpriviledged' users can read & write to it.

/dev/hda1  /mnt/C  vfat  users,gid=users,umask=0002,iocharset=utf8  0  0

As you can probably tell from that line, the mount command to do the
same thing should be

mount -t vfat -o users,gid=users,umask=0002,iocharset=utf8 /dev/hda1 /mnt/C

(One doesn't need to include "rw" in the options since that is the
default.  Feel free to add it, though, if you want.)
