Error permission for write windows partition: media/windows

Postby paranhos81 » Jun 4th, '14, 15:56

Hi,
I have my perfect setup. Mageia and Windows 7 use the same notebook.

I have a partition for each and when I installed Mageia created a NTFS partition with 365Gb of space that was left on my hard drive. I called the media linux / windows and after running all restetei and went with windows and some files recorded on the 365Gb partition and then I reset the notebook. Mageia and loaded the list of directories to media / windows partition and see the files appear but if you copy a file from / home / to media / windows I get the error message saying I have no permission.

Can anyone help? Have searched the manual and found nothing.

thank you

I replaced the line:

# Entry for /dev/sda8 :
UUID=2BF387586393205C /media/windows ntfs umask=000,nls=utf8,ro 0 0


Why is replacing ro by rw:

# Entry for /dev/sda8 :
UUID=2BF387586393205C /media/windows ntfs umask=000,nls=utf8,rw 0 0

partition /media/windows is right.

How do I put the parameter to write to the partition /root/media ?

What do you want to achieve exactly? You want to write as normal user to /root/media ?
Why do you mount something below /root ? Why not mount everything below /media or /mnt ?

That my friend is a very strange /etc/fstab.

You have /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 mounted as ntfs-3g which is read write under Linux but /dev/sda8 mounted as ntfs which is read only under Linux.

Also you seem to have /dev/sda8 set as a network share then mounted again on the same computer under /mnt/windows.

For /dev/sda7, what is on it and how did you create it?
