[SOLVED] Using my Drives

[Griffy]

Thanks!

You're welcome.

Did you manage to do it?

I haven't tried yet I was busy. I'm sure it will work. I have been using linux for a really long time but am self-taught so the holes in my knowledge are vast, you'll see that the more I post. I've been loving MX on my laptop after cycling through many distros on a ventoy usb I made, so I thought I would fire up my old pc so I could use the disks in it to backup my USB disk that I have a large amount of media on. My goals here were simple, but I have been digging in trying to do more with the command line and not be so GUI dependent. Thanks for all the help and enduring my knowledge holes. I appreciated the quick responses.

You're welcome. As you might already know: you can also do it manually editing the /etc/fstab .
You can ask here how to, if needed, or search the forum :)

When all (whichever you want to change) are mounted (there) you can use the *

... /media/ricky/*

Code: Select all

sudo chown -R 1000:1000 /media/ricky/*

or

Code: Select all

sudo chown -R ricky:ricky /media/ricky/*
