I'm having a disquieting experience in which I can't remove write permission (i.e. "bash$ chmod a-x filespec") on my firewire drive.
I've sudoed to no avail.
Any ideas?
Use "Disk Utility" to have a look at the volume(s) on the drive. If it's a platform-agnostic drive that's advertised as compatible with both Windows and Mac, it's likely to have a FAT32 volume on it.
