[SOLVED] Permissions issue on 128GB SSD internal drive

[patricia1066]

The linux laptop  is wireless while T520 is wired into the network. SMB doesnt work on W10 or linux anymore, I presume due to security issues, and SSH within the LAN is the slow but usually reliable alternative. I tried to open Windows network on DC and although there are 4 PC wired in the LAN none show. These are managed by my husband who said he has disabled SMB.

Can you SSH to your Snakeoil PC, and then run
 

Code:

sudo chmod 777 /media/music

And then directly copy files to /media/music folder in DC. I'll see if i can find a better way to manage that. Gotta think of a universal way.

Thanks so much.
Yes that works. I used cp -R to copy the contents of the USB music folder /media/music/sdb2 to media/Music where Music is on the internal SSD.
Should I avoid the latest update? I don't want to scrub the OS drive unintentionally.
