So I did "su" and tried changing ownership... failed x8940 /home/waltdnes/tablet # chown waltdnes:users sdcard1 chown: changing ownership of 'sdcard1': Function not implemented Let's try "chmod"... failed silently [x8940][root][/home/waltdnes/tablet] chmod 777 sdcard1 [x8940][root][/home/waltdnes/tablet] ll total 24 drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 0 Dec 31 1969 . drwxr-xr-x 144 waltdnes users 24576 May 15 18:17 .. drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 0 Nov 16 4456932 sdcard drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 0 Apr 22 4456932 sdcard1 root can't chmod sdcard1. [x8940][root][/home/waltdnes/tablet] mkdir sdcard1/data mkdir: cannot create directory ‘sdcard1/data’: Input/output error and root can't create a directory!!! Let's try top level...

So I added a line to /etc/fstab, but no luck... /sys/fs/fuse/connections /home/waltdnes/tablet auto noauto,users,noatime,nodiratime,async,rw 0 0 No luck. -- Roses are red Roses are blue Depending on their velocity Relative to you
