SOLVED: New Drive on LE NUC - Permissions?

HomerJau · February 20, 2024 at 11:18 PM

I installed an additional 5TB SATA drive on an existing Intel NUC that has LE on an SSD drive.

I used parted etc to create a 100% ext4 partition etc, all working great in LE12.

I can copy files from my PC to that new drive partition using winscp but when I access that drive via Explorer smb I can create directories but when I attempt a copy a file I get an error saying ‘not enough space’.

How can I set permissions so I can directly copy to the LE drive from my PC please? (I want to script the copy process not drag and drop folders via winscp ui)

Thanks.

Hi HomerJau

I just tested samba on LE12 and was able to put a file on an ext4 ok. Can you please check your file system.

Bash

Thanks heitbaum

My issue is now resolved. I ended up creating a entry in my samba.conf and can now access via Windows Explorer with path:

\\IP ADRESSS\Folder Name and can copy files as I want.
