OK, got disk up. (Problem was I didn't know its make. ad3s1 eventually
worked.)

Now it seems I can't make it writable by anyone but root:

diva# ls -l viv.html
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1987 Jul  4 05:21 viv.html
diva# chmod g+w viv.html
diva# ls -l viv.html
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1987 Jul  4 05:21 viv.html
diva# chmod a+w viv.html 
diva# ls -l viv.html
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1987 Jul  4 05:21 viv.html

Same for any files. Is this some sort of FAT32 limitation? Is this
documented anywhere?
