made the change to the fstab file.
can mount the zip drive with the command above as user, not root.

perms on the zip platter look like this (only root has

[Scripts is a directory and the same perms hold for files within.]

I really don't care about the perms on the zip platter -- only that
I can write to it without a hassle.
