New HDD formating on Ext4 root permission
- by Carlos Salmeron
OK people good evening, I have this new 80Gb HDD I want to use it as a backup storage for my actual system (14.04) not a server. I formatted it with Gpart but I just can't write in it, when I search for permissions it tells me that only root users can write/create in it, log on as root user and try to change permissions, and I can't do that either.
Long have I searched for an answer, looking everywhere but not to find any, is there a way to format it and use it with my user permission?
Don't want it on NTFS, is there a way?, I have searched in these forums but there’s only an answer to format it in NTFS, so please.
Thank you in advance.
