Re: new guy checking in has new problem(s)

I already tried right-click. It gave me nothing about preferences. I
tried it again just now. Same result. When I right-click the 80.0 GB
Media icon, I get a menu that offers "Open," "Open in New Window,"
"Remove," "Rename," and "Unmount." "Remove" and "Rename" are greyed out.
If I unmount and right-click again, my options are the same.

And yes, Nautilus presents me with a "root file manager" window.

Try again?

I did sudo nautilus. I gave it my password. Nautilus opened. So far
as I can tell, Nautilus won't do anything with permissions. The word
"Permissions" appears nowhere in Nautilus, so far as I can tell.

Try again?

Right click? Properties is at the bottom, permissions are included.
