Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Change file permission of mounted drive Linux Post 302958586 by yifangt on Friday 23rd of October 2015 01:06:07 PM
Old 10-23-2015
I copied from other post when I first could not run anything from that mounted disk. With permissions 0 0 everything was changed belongs to root with permission 777, which is worse than the previous permission setting (forgot what it was!), and this annoying when I browse the folders. I want to get it back to original setting.
After I changed with your settings, it is the same. I can't even change the permissions under root.
Code:
sudo chmod a-wx *.c
sudo chmod -x *.pdf

did not give any error, though.
