I a newbie myself. But probably the device was mounted as read-only.
Check out man-pages for mount and see fstab.
Goof luck
I recently installed Knoppix to my HD and all went well (eventually). But now as I take files which I backed up from my computer and try to copy them to hda4 it tells me that access is denied to mnt/hda4. I can't seem to put anything onto this partition, what could my problem be?
as before I am new to Linux, so if I haven't given enough information please ask me specifically for what you need to know.
Thanks,
Seeger

what filesystem is it? if you had XP on that computer it is likely ntfs.
Ntfs is a filesystem that is generally read only for linux.
there is a few projects like captive that work arountd those limitations,
but "I" consider them to be far from perfect.
It is not NTFS, it's ext3 I believe. It think the problem is that its ownership in the permissions tab is "user: root" and "group: root". How can I make that available to all users and not just the root user?

Nevemind, Linux for Dummies pulled through for me.
