I'm trying to get a video download plugin for Firefox (Ant Video) to write into a vfat partition where there's more space. I keep getting the message "You can not read or write files in this folder."
Initially, the permissions for the folder were weird. I followed the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=526903
And edited /etc/fstab to this:
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
# / was on /dev/sda6 during installation
UUID=b1e6a62a-ffba-4a34-a7dd-9b3cfa169095 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
# /intldata was on /dev/sda7 during installation
#UUID=38CC-D54A /intldata vfat utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 1
UUID=38CC-D54A /intldata vfat utf8,umask=007,gid=1000,uid=1000 0 1
# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=f5cc3678-13aa-4d1f-8371-087147891455 none swap sw 0 0
The bold line is the one I changed; the commented-out one above is what was there before.
This has changed owner and group :
Code:
ls -lh | less
...
drwxrwx--- 16 onebir onebir 32K 1970-01-01 02:00 intldata
...
Since I'm logging in as onebir, I thought that would allow Firefox to access the folder. But apparently not... What have I missed?
