This shows your drive is a fat32 drive, and that it is mounted with ownership to shampyon as a user. If you are logged in as shampyon, you should be able to write to that drive because all permissions are set.
This is how my USB stick shows itself:
Code:
/dev/sdd1: SEC_TYPE="msdos" LABEL="USB" UUID="3B69-1AFD" TYPE="vfat"
f
drwx------ 8 vanadium root 16384 1970-01-01 01:00 USB
f
so this is perfectly comparable to your situation. To make sure all is ok with the mounting, you might also want to post the output of
For my drive, the output says
Code:
/dev/sdd1 on /media/USB type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077,flush)
which reveals that the drive is mounted for user 1000 (uid=1000) (which happens to be me, with full permissions for the owner, none for the group or others (umask=077).
Can you confirm you cannot write as user or as root issuing the commands (and posting output here)
Code:
touch /media/disk/file_as_normal_user
sudo touch /media/disk/file_as_root
If any error shows up here, we might need to look into checking the file system of the drive.
