Hi, I don't know how to set up the portable hard drive (external one).
I failed to drag (copy) things into it. it showed me, Error opening file '/media/FreeAgent GoFlex Drive/fulltext.pdf': Permission denied but I can drag things out. :/media$ ls -l FreeAgent\ GoFlex\ Drive/ total 36172 -rw------- 1 lina lina 170 Jan 11 2010 Autorun.inf -rw------- 1 lina lina 65643 Mar 18 2010 GoFlex.ico -rw------- 2 lina lina 36806329 Feb 16 2011 Mac Installer.dmg drwx------ 1 lina lina 0 Aug 10 20:01 Seagate -rw------- 1 lina lina 156312 Jan 16 2009 Setup.exe drwx------ 1 lina lina 0 Aug 10 20:01 System Volume Information drwx------ 1 lina lina 4096 Aug 10 20:01 UserGuides I tried chmod a+x and a+w still not work. and once newly plugged into, it showed as before (unchanged). There are some .dmg and .exe which I do not plan to try and install in respective OS. Can I remove them all? how do I reformat it? Thanks for any suggestions, (no need very intelligent set up, just basic one, so I can use it to backup.) lina P.S The filesystem type is ntfs, while the debian file system I guess I used ext4. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
