Hi James,
thanks for reply

Hi all,
I have Suse10. Recently I bought external HD (USB2.0 EXTERNAL ENCLOSURE
for 3.5" IDE devices). After booting, this devices was mounted on
/media/EXTERNAL and I could go inside this directory and each
subdirectories. Trying to copy some files tu the HD I got this message
"read-only". In the fstab file there was nothing abouth the new device
so I put:
/dev/sda5 /media/EXTERNAL subfs defaults 0 0
but there is no change except the message now is "Permission denied
(13)". I checked, and there is a permission to read, writeand execute
on this directory. I was doing all this as SU. I do not really know
how to make this functionable.
Could somebody help me with this?
IIRC, format types other than FAT are mounted read only for ordinary users.
