I've done this several ways. I'm trying to copy an MP3 file onto a Linux partition. I've tried copying it off a CD and I've tried copying it right out of the windows partition. I'm getting an error when I do this, and the error message suggests that maybe I don't have permissions for this. Any ideas or suggestions?
