I formatted it ext 4, there is also a lost and found folder on it that I cannot delete. The HD previously had a copy of Windows Xp on it. Would someone be willing to walk me thru the process as I'm not to familiar with doing so in Linux?
Hi
If I understand it correctly, the thing you have to do is: Open a terminal and write this (replace the xxxxxx with your username).
- Code: Select all
sudo chown xxxxxxxx:users /media/disk -R
- Code: Select all
sudo chmod 775 /media/disk -R
That shuld fix the problem.
