It's possible to mount your Windows partition with all the files set
with whatever ownership/permissions you want.  You can put the settings
in /etc/fstab, but I can't find the appropriate settings in fstab's
manpages..  I think you can do it in Linuxconf though, though I haven't
tried Linuxconf under Debian yet.
