Cannot use storage partition

[sam0010]

I have installed tc 2.7 on a partition on my eeepc 701sd and I have VLC and rhythmbox working.   I have music on a different partition that I use for storage and music on an sd card.  Tc will load and play music that's on the sd card but  not that which is on the storage partition!  Tc will not let me copy from the sd card to the storage partition  or to  the tc partition. Any help will be appreciated.

It sounds like a permissions issue - what filesystem do you have on the sd card?

Do you know which device your "storage partition" relates to? I guess it's not mounted. But to get things started I'll list here a couple of commands. Please post the results and we can take it from there:

Code: [Select]

cat /etc/fstab
cat /etc/mtab
blkid /dev/[hs]d*

Thanks for replying. My sd card is fat32. I need instructions on how to copy and paste when using the terminal.  I am using Roxfiler to manage my files including mounting.

Highlight the text to copy, and use the middle mouse button to paste.

Thanks.  I did
    chmod -R a+rwx /mnt/sda2(music partition)
    and
    chown -R root:root /mnt/sda2

This appears to have solved the problem.
