Re: File / Folders Permissions

Just curious:
What is the lost+found folder used for? I'm pretty sure it's not the trash
What's the difference between Gigibyte and Gigabyte? I've never heard of
the first one

Thanks,

Jimmy

Are you talking about Gigibytes or Gigabytes. There is a slight
difference.

Hi All,

I would like to make a folder visible only to it's owner, more
specifically:

I dedicated a whole ext3 partition for my music. The 'lost+fond' folder
was ceated and, of course, only root can get in there...

Is there a way to make this folder show up only if I ls or browse it as
root?

Also, somewhat related, I think there's a problem with creating ext3
partitions since the update to the new lowlatency kernel:

This is what I've done:

Copied the data to another partition
Deleted the partition (using: Gnome Partition Editor, fdisk and cfdisk -
same results)
Rebooted the machine
Created a new type 83 (Linux) Primary partition starting with block 1
and ebding with the last block - 9729 (whole size of the HDD: 80Gb)
Rebooted the machine
Formatted the new partition with 'mkfs.ext3 /ded/sdb1
All without errors
Mounted the partition
df -h showed 74Gb total, 180M (?!) used and 70Gb remaining...

I had the same problem with another 80Gb HDD I recently put in the
computer (now I have 3 HDDs and 1 DVD-RW Drive)
I eventually re-formated the other HDD to RaierFS and after twice
rebooting, it got fixed on it's own, can say why and how...
I asked the list but no one answered.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
