Subject: [gentoo-user] Cannot edit files on usb flash drive.
Date: Mon, 08 Mar 2010 14:31:40 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B9499CC.2020003@gmail.com> (raw)
I have a usb flash drive which will not allow me to edit its files. I
have tried chmod a+rwx -R $files but this does still not permit
editing. Further, the files within the directories refuse to have
ownership changed via chown $myusername -R /mnt/disk. Output is:
operation not permitted. Any ideas? Thanks.
