RIGHT.
Heres the thing. I have Xubuntu and XBMC installed on a desktop which has a 40GBish drive. I installed Xubuntu first, then XBMC-on a ten gig partition of the drive-or so i thought. Seems that Xubuntu is on the ten-gig partition, then XBMC and BOTH the swap partitions are on the other bit. Follow me so far? (I'm not sure if i do...) Anyway, I realised this because i tried to copy some videos to the videos folder in Xubuntu so i could acces them from XBMC later, but ran out of space faster than expected. So i went into GParted to try and sort out my problem. I shrunk the 25gig filesystem (the one with everything but Xubuntu main) down to 5gig as less than that was actually used, then created a new "Storage" partition.
When mounted, it can only be accessed by Root
Why so?
Please, is there any simple way to fix this?
Any ideas?
