This solution is only available to members.

For simplicity,I log in as root, start up mc (Midnight Commander) in xterm or text console. Highlight /dosc or whatever you've called it. Press F9, then F, Then O. Scroll onto your name, tab to the next window, scroll onto users or whatever group you are in, then tab to set and press enter. Open up the tree and repeat as necessary.
This is the file which mounts all your filesystems at boot time. All you have to do, is change the options to allow you to write to that paritition.
Maybe something like this:
/dev/hda1 /win95 msdos defaults 1 1
(assuming that /dev/hda1 is your win95 partition)
