I have files and directories in a IDE hard drive that was installed in a Solaris 9 computer.
I have to delete and copy to that hard some files and directories to it, but all I can do it is to read and copy from it to my computer. I understood that it is a permissions issue, but I don't know how to overcome it.
- I use: Kubuntu 18.10. I can attach the hard drive and see its contents.
- I tried to open Krusader as root and then tried to delete or rename and copy to the hard drive, but it didn't work.
- I also tried to change the permissions with pcManfm file manager
Can anyone help with detailed steps because I'm not very familiar with Unix or Linux commands. If it helps I tried the command fdisk -l :
inspiron@inspiron-pc:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
