mount permissions

["Mr. Strockbine" <gstrock@pacbell.net>]

when my FAT32 file systems are mounted at
boot time the owner and group are "root".
As a regular user I can read files but not
write them.

I have the user option in my /etc/fstab file
like so:
/dev/hdc6  /matrox/mx6 vfat defaults,user 0 2

so I can `umount' and then `remount' as a regular
user and then I'm the owner and group and I have
read write permission.

so what's the point of having this file system
automatically mounted at boot time?  Or is there
another way around this?
