As already answered in another reply, you can only decide the ownership
and group at mount time.
The easiest way to make this work the way you want (IMHO) is to chane
the ownership, group and / or permissions on the mountput (ie. the
directory where you will mount your msdos partition) _before_ you mount it.
Something like this:
$ chown hcheng /winwork
$ chown hcheng /winboot
and so on.
