Hi all, I need to back-up my /home approx. once a week and for this reason I installed SimpleBackup to take care of this. I want the app to back-up to my external drive. This is a new drive which I formatted to ext4 and named it UbuntuBU. Setting up the Simple Backup suite and under the Tab "Destination" I choose "use custom local backup directory" and point the program to the partition I want on the external drive. I then get the following message:
"The selected destination is not writable with current permissions. Backups cannot be stored there"
Question: How and where do I now need to change the permissions so that I can backup to this drive? How do I solve this problem?
