[SOLVED] Permissions issue on 128GB SSD internal drive

[patricia1066]

AK, this is where I am now, after spending hours (lucky I am retired huh!) I hope I can sort it out myself with just a little further help. 

T520 has 128GB SSD; Linux laptop for music management; USB drive attached to T520.
I have reinstalled linux on my laptop; I attached a USB drive to snakeoil PC with music files and LMS has scanned and played from SB Touch.

I can copy music files (over SSH on DC) from the USB drive to laptop; the file changes attribute in the transfer from 777 to 640

The transfer from laptop drive 640 to SSD Music Directory 755 failed. I attach the error code in case it is useful. 

I am reluctant to make attribute changes with terminal as DC kept crashing afterwards; I needed a dev version to get it working even after new install Debian. 

What I can do is a fresh install Ubuntu on SSD, this time with a separate partition for music. I can copy the 5000 tracks when logged into the T520. One point I need advice on, will the partition be created with 777 automatically by Ubuntu?




cp /media/music/sdb2/NUCMusic /dev/sda3/Music - If the Music partition is sda3

LMS has scanned the mounted USB although the files all have 777 attributes. Mounted as /dev/sdb2 | /media/music/sdb2 in Snakeoil Library.
