Re: [tlug] Permissions are like Rubik's cubes [SOLVED]



Godwin,

Thanks for responding.

The filesystem on these pen drives usually a FAT filesystem on which
there's no such concept as file ownership and permissions.

Aha. It all makes sense now.

I always thought the whole permissions deal was a matter of the operating system, not the disk file system.

Thanks for schooling me on todays new Linux fact.

As they say on the BBC... "Thants".
