How do I grant read/write/execute permissions to myself for this > partition? $ sudo chown -R simon:simon /media/local_b Change of course if your username is different. This will make everything on the partition belong to you. > 2. How do I rename the partition? It's current name is "22.8 GB Media" $ sudo tune2fs -L MYLABEL /dev/sda2 This would set the label to 'MYLABEL' for that partition. > Thanks in advance. > Simon Ives Hope that helps, Cheers, Owen. -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
