I've installed a new harddisk in my computer. I've created a new primary partition on it and formated it with ext3. If i mount it now, i always get "permission denied" if i want to write something to it..
View 8 RepliesI am trying to install grub in MBR. I have working configuration on my root partion. I tried "grub-install" on MBR but gives me some warning.
Code:
/usr/sbin/grub-install /dev/sda
WARNING! You are trying to invoke the unsupported grub-install script with a parameter. To really do this, call grub-install.unsupported. You should rather call "yast2 bootloader" or create configuration files appropriate for the intended target. Also I tried it from Yast but still MBR has Chamelon boot loader.(I have chamelon boot loader, I want to overwrite my MBR with current grub configuration on my root partition.)
I tried using grub-install.unsupported but it did not work either. it says: /dev/sda does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
I tried grub-editor (kde module) to do the work, but it gives me error: grub-install returned and unknown error exit code 1.
I have made an update to 11.3 which brought along a lot of trouble, which I may have caused by mixing the use of YAST and CLI zypper, but most bugs are sorted out except that my OpenOffice does not save to my server, other applications do without hesitation. Have defined the target with NFS shares, no NFSv4, all defaults.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm having some issues writing files through dolphin (smb://computer_name/) to a Windows SBS share. It seems that every time I try and write a file it simply creates a 32KB file.
I was previously able to write to this (Opensuse 11.0 / 11.1 / 11.2) and nothing has changed on the Windows server (besides for windows updates).
I'm running:
Opensuse 11.3 KDE Version 4.5.2 (KDE 4.5.2) "release 10"
Dolphin Version 1.5
I've got a triple boot system here (W7,XP,OpenSUSE 11.1). Several windows partitions are mounted as part of the standard opensuse install. I can write to them from opensuse only when I am superuser. I suspect I need to tweak mtab? Here is my ftab followed by mtab: Any ideas?

How can I turn it off so I could modify my pendrive contents.
After the fresh installation of openSUSE 11.4 x64 (Gnome 2.32.1) my NTFS drives were mounted automatically. However, I can only write those partitions as root. I' ve already tried everything I found on the internet, but none of those solutions worked and as a rookie, I haven't got any idea how to proceed. My original FSTAB looked like this:
Code:
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Hitachi_HTS545050B9A300_100708PBN403B7HMV4WL-part6 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Hitachi_HTS545050B9A300_100708PBN403B7HMV4WL-part7 / ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Hitachi_HTS545050B9A300_100708PBN403B7HMV4WL-part8 /home ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 2
[code]....
I also installed ntfs-config and according to it my drives are supposed to be writeable (although that might refer to my root account). But none of the above steps made my NTFS partitions writeable for a non-root account. I restarted my system after each time I changed the content of FTSAB.
i have client and server PCs, both with openSuse 11.2.
on the server side, i have mounted HD partition to /vmshare dir. relevant line in /etc/fstab reads:
Code:
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD3200AAJS-07B4A0_WD-WCAT16493946-part2 /vmshare reiserfs user,acl 1 2
i want to export /vmshare dir via nfs. i have configured it through yast and resulting line in /etc/exports reads:
Code:
/vmshare *(rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check,crossmnt)
the permissions for this directory is drwxrwxr-x root vmshare.
i can successfully mount the exported dir on client side, i can move between directories and list contents, but i can't write into it (not even as a root). on the server side, i can write to the directory only as root. the vmshare group is created on both machines with same gid as well as all users have same uids. firewalls are down.y.
Using SuSE 11./4 on two machines. Successfully set up a server to share a folder. The client is able to read files from the folder, but not write to them.the client perspective, the shared folder permissions are read and write if owner, read only for all otherHowever, the server shared folder has been set up for sharing, and the permissions are set for read and write to all.
One more thing. When the client goes into the samba share, it sees the workgroup. Clicking into that, it sees the name of the server computer. Clicking into that,it sees two folders: "profiles" and "users". Clicking into "users" goes into the shared folder. I tried setting the permissions from the client side on the "users" folder using root privileges to allow reading and writing without any success
I want to update my gnome to the latest version (2.30) because I have 2.28 so I go to terminal and enter the command "apt-get" or try "zypper dup" which both ask for root so I just add "sudo" before the commands and when it ask for the password it doesnt let me write it.

I currently discovered a problem when using the floppy drive /dev/fd0: I can't use it. I can mount /dev/fd0 as normal, can create/write a file, but it is not written to the floppy disk. Instead of that the current program (eg vim) hangs (or is "uninterruptable") until I remove the floppy disk from the drive. Because of the removal I get several errors in /var/log/messages. What I'm doing:
== snip ==
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt
echo "TEST" > /mnt/test
sync [--> HANG until I remove the floppy disk]
[sync "completes"/terminates, insert floppy disk]
umount /mnt
== snap ==
(In this example I used echo instead of vim, because it behaves the same in this situation) The errors I get are as follows:

As a testcase on how encryption works out of the box with OS11.4 I've formatted an external drive with encryption. All goes well and upon boot the passphrase is requested. However I cannot write files to the disk as a user and I can't find the correct mount command in order to get it mounted so that my users can write to it and not only the root.
