I installed Ubuntu(dualboot) with no problems on my ssd , and my hdd (ntsf) is mounted with permission to write and read files on. I cant acces files on my HDD to upload , even download when the windo to select files is up.
The hdd is located /media/passe2142/Almacenamiento.
sudo chown -R username '/media' and got to change the permision but the problem persist.
Later I tried this:
sudo ntfs-config
(ntfs-config:4763): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of /home/passe/.config/ibus/bus is not root!
And got this error.
(DONT DO THIS) I try to use sudo chown -R passe '/' and it didnt work.
UPDATE
I have reinstall it. The mistake i made was messing with the permissions. So as you know im a complete noob in this OS. The issue is that i would like to be able to upload/download files directly from my Hdd.
UPDATE 2
I was using chromium as browser, in firefox there is no problem. I can choose other locations like my hdd. Weird. It also happens if i want to add local files to spotify.
Really sorry for my bad english.
sudo chown -R passe '/'
? If not do not run this command! That will change the ownership of all files and directories on your system to belong to the userpasse
, effectively breaking your system. – terdon Mar 18 '18 at 23:32/media
directly. This directory should contain a directory for each user mounting/umounting external stuff (memory sticks, etc..) That said,/media/passe/Almacenamiento
is apparently something that you've plugged in and you can expect being able to read and write from/to that directory. Is that not the case? – lubumbax Mar 18 '18 at 23:36
