Nothing. It won't work. It's a vfat filesystem. It doesn't support
unix permissions.

If you want to use permissions, backup, re-format with a modern
filesystem (ext*, reiserfs, xfs, jfs...) and restore.


What I don't understand is: you talk about your home directory but
your drives are mounted on /media/c and /media/d. Can you be more
specific? Where's your home directory?
