[NBLUG/talk] Adding a used second HDD

I know I've read the solution to this somewhere, but can't find it now.

I've removed a second (data only) 10GB hdd from an old machine, and installed 
it as /dev/hdd in my Debian box.

I find that the disk has a fat32 filesystem on it. 

I want to retain the files, but I can't change the permissions on them to 
allow moving, even when I'm logged in as root.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Robert
