I've had the same problem with ubuntu, dreamlinux, sabayon (I think), etc. Even knoppix, which is the best of them, mounts initially as read- only. The difference is that knoppix makes it easy to change the read/write permissions for the removable drive. You can right-click on the desktop drive icon and there is a menu option that lets you switch back and forth from read-only to writable. This option is not present in the others. (BTW, I'm referring to knoppix 5.1-5.3. I'm not sure if more recent versions have the same behavior.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
