Help with Midnight Commander file transfer, cannot chown target directory /mnt/disks/Lexar#1

Featured Replies

I've recently changed my deluge download location from unassigned disk to cache.  Everything is ok.  But now, I"m copying downloaded file to my Lexar USB (also unassigned disk), I am encountering above error.  

 

I'm not familiar with linux permissions, so don't know what to do next.

What filesystem is Lexar#1?

  • Author

fat32.  Can't recall the original one, but the same Lexar#1, as soon as I plugged it in, I had that error message pop up.  The same usb was working before.  I wasn't able to check old fs, and just deleted, and formatted it, to fat32, with the same error coming up.

FAT32 doesn't support permissions, error is normal.

I believe I was on exFat or Fat32 before.  And Upon plugging this usb drive in, and trying to copy, it didn't work, hence I deleted, and formatted Fat32.  The same problem came out.  I tried exFat again, also not working.  Deleted again partitions, this time around, tried NTFS, and it worked.  Any reason for this?

Same for exFAT.

Thank you.   I'll just have to assume my old format was ntfs :D

I can now confirm that my Lexar#1, other USB devices that I plug to my Unraid were on Fat32.  So used to be, I can use MC to do file transfer from NAS to these USB devices.  I've recently upgraded to 6.9.2.  Did this change any MC version?  Kernel Version?  Was this the reason why it isn't working now on Fat32?

You can still use MC, it just won't keep the permissions, files are still copied, and AFAIK nothing changed in that.

Files are not being copied across.

  • Community Expert

They will if you ignore those errors.

Forgot to mention that you can also uncheck "preserve attributes" before copying to avoid the errors:
