I have recently created a separate home partition following this tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving. Since I’m still a newbie in the Linux (struggling to learn) I felt happy when every thing seemed to work smooth. How ever, I realised after a while that I had lost all permission to my subfolders in the my home folder. I still can read/write the files placed directly in /home/magnus but I'm denied access to any of the subfolders.
I just realised one more disturbing thing, probably related to home-partition story above:
When I try
cd ~/Music/
I get the message
bash: cd: /home/magnus/Music/: Permission denied
When I try:
sudo cd ~/Music/
I get the result
sudo: cd: command not found
Seems strange that the cd command have been lost?
What have I done wrong and is there a way to fix this?
btw: I use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Thanks for all the help! Magnus
