{man mount   man fstab  man 2 umask}

about 30 times through that did it for me.  Or,

<wine>/documentation/installing.sgml->Dealing with FAT/VFAT partitions

Tis nasty little script makes it possible to read .sgml files.  There
are pointers to nicer formats for this at http://www.winehq.com.

#!/bin/sh
sed -e 's/<[^<>]*>//g' -e 's/&lt;/</g' -e 's/&gt;/>/g' $1 |less -ni
