Re: Can not set execute permission to file in usb storage media with fat32 format

[gulfstream <gulfstream.wang@gmail.com>]

Very strange. The usb stick was mounted by debian system automatic. If I login with root and plug usb stick, I can execute the script after automatic mounting. But if I login with user and plug usb stick, I cann't execute it after automatic mounting with message "permission denied".

I don't think "chown +x" is possible on an alien FS.
On my usb stick with FAT32, all files look like they're executables.

You might simply use:

$ . ./script_file
