I'm trying to move some .jpg & .mp3 files from a USB hard drive that is formatted under MAC OSX (0xaf) to a Windows Vista Laptop.
I am using a Knoppix 6 live cd. Knoppix sees the laptop hard drive as
System /media/sda2
Vista /media/sda3
Recovery /media/sda1
and the USB hard drive as
disk2s1
I can see files on the laptop's hard drive but when I try to access the USB drive I get 'Permission Denied'
Can the files on this drive be transferred to the laptop?
Thanks for any help or suggestions
I think that "disk2s1" is the partition's label. Usually the partition gets a mount point in the directory /media and that mount point is named after the device name. In the PCMan File Manager the partitions are often identified by their label. You might tryto get the device name. Execution of the commandCode:ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/disk2s1delivers information about the partition's mount point if it's already mounted. Afterwards you might executeCode:mountExample: The partition has got the label "Cruzer1" and the device name is /dev/sda1. The mount command delivers the mount point /media/sda1. Thus I would executeCode:ls -la "mount point"in order to see the owner, group and permissions.Code:ls -la /media/sda1
If the partition has not yet been mounted then the mount command won't show you a mount point, but
you might try
If this does not work then mount will give you an error message.Code:sudo mkdir /media/macdisk sudo mount -o gid=1000,uid=1000 /dev/disk/by-label/disk2s1 /media/macdisk ls -la /media/disk2s1

So far the informational part. Next the mounting.
The command is `mount [-t fstype] something somewhere'.
Details found in /etc/fstab may be omitted.
mount -a [-t|-O] ... : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab
mount device : mount device at the known place
mount directory : mount known device here
mount -t type dev dir : ordinary mount command
Note that one does not really mount a device, one mounts
a filesystem (of the given type) found on the device.
One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere:
mount --bind olddir newdir
or move a subtree:
mount --move olddir newdir
One can change the type of mount containing the directory dir:
mount --make-shared dir
mount --make-slave dir
mount --make-private dir
mount --make-unbindable dir
One can change the type of all the mounts in a mount subtree
containing the directory dir:
mount --make-rshared dir
mount --make-rslave dir
mount --make-rprivate dir
mount --make-runbindable dir
A device can be given by name, say /dev/hda1 or /dev/cdrom,
or by label, using -L label or by uuid, using -U uuid .
Other options: [-nfFrsvw] [-o options] [-p passwdfd].
For many more details, say man 8 mount .
I still get 'Permission Denied' when I try to access the disk. I can mount and un-mount by right clicking the drive.
Your USB disk has been mounted on /media/sdb1. You may not write on it but you may read. Now you might run the commandOriginally Posted by Cherry5to see owner, group and permissions of the files and directories.Code:ls -al /media/sdb1
After ls -al /media sdb1
root@Microknoppix:/home/knoppix# ls -al /media/sdb1
