Mounting StuffSubmitted by Mike82 on Fri, 2008-03-21 22:33.
I guess this is kinda a newbie question, and i briefly looked around, but didn't get a good answer so i thought i would ask. I have ubuntu for 3 days, i love it.so, about mounting drives. I, like most new people are run windows XP on the side. I love ubuntu over windows but i have had some small problems.I have a drive i wish to unmount... simply because i havent been able to so, and i want to get a feel for the command. The drive is a windows drive i do have access to (browse, read/write) ... but it says i don't have permissions... i did a little diggin up and learned a little about chmod. So...can CHMOD change the permission for me to unmount the device... if so how?I also read an article on manually mounting drives and i tried to do it with a flash drive, but it didn't work correct... it said my disk was already mounted (after i unmounted it from the desktop) or my folder was busy... I don't see why that would be.Lastly, my windows partition is currently mounted as sda1, can i change this so the pretty drive in the corner says something like "WindowsXP"thanks all.
