What type of partitions are they? Knoppix can read fine from a NTFS partition but should not write to one. Writing to FAT partitions is fine and recommended.
Trivial question:
How does one copy files/directories from (Partition - - for instance: /dev/hdb14 to /dev/hdb11, having booted up with the Knoppix 5.0 live CD?
Yes: Right click on BOTH HDpartition icons, mount.
Yes: Right click on BOTH HD partition icons, Make READ-WRITE.
Wunnerful helpful error. SO helpful. SO informative... "YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO WRITE TO THIS DISK..."
Has ANYONE ever been able to do this?
It would help immensely to know how...

Verifying of md5 checksum and burning a CD at slow speed are important.

Doesn't work in linux.
Try this: open a shell (terminal, konsole) and type : man mount
After you've read that try right clicking on the icon(s) of the devices you wish to copy to, select properties etc.

Rusty;
Thanks anyway, been there dun dat. Everything APPEARS normal & copyable, BUT still no copy; and still the inane "You do not have permissions to blah blah blah..."
There must be a way to defeat this insanity, but it has not yet been found...
Thanks again;

Try it this way; At the knoppix boot prompt type: knoppix 2, which should boot the machine (what is it btw?) to a root shell. Type: startx , and proceed as in my earlier post.
Let us know...
When you mount a partition under Knoppix, even for RW, the root (top) of that partition is owned by user root - this is normal Linux behavior! When you open a normal terminal you are not root, only the knoppix user. You will need root privileges to do what you want: put "sudo" in front of each command that writes to the root of a partition; alternatively, run "sudo bash" first; alternatively, open a root terminal ...
Lets see if I can remember this one correctly. I am not logged into KNOPPIX right now, but here goes:Originally Posted by katamaran
Make sure that your desktop Icon does not have a little green triangle at the bottom. Otherwise, you need to right-click on your drive/partition icon and choose UNMOUNT from the context window.
THEN, right click again on the icon and go to properties and the device tab and uncheck the Read Only checkbox. Then left-click on the icon and you will re-mount the device with read and write permissions. Also, a Konqueror file manager window will appear with the contents (files and directories) of your drive partition.
This is a little confusing.
In KNOPPIX, you normally left-click on the disk drive icon to mount it. Once the disk is mounted, you can right-click on the icon, and select change the read/write permissions to, well, change the read/write permissions - you will be prompted to confirm this. Right-clicking on the disk icon, you can also select unmount, to stop working with the disk all together.
Does this clear it up?
I could be wrong, but I think you need to uncheck the "Read Only" settings while the partition is UN-mounted.Originally Posted by SiKing
Next time I am using KNOPPIX, I will need to check this one out.
