Permissions EXT4 drive, XBMC cannot access folders
I have a new harddisk, formatted as EXT4. I transferred all my media from an NTFS drive to the EXT4 drive using Ubuntu from an USB stick on my Macbook.
I used rsync command from a Terminal logged in as root on Ubuntu, copying 2 folders: Movies and TV Shows. All other folders (Pictures, Music) were already present on the harddisk. The problem: in XBMC, I cannot open the two folders Movies and TV Shows. I tried various chmod commands: sudo chown -R xbian:xbian /media/usb0 sudo find /media/usb0 -type d -exec chmod 755 {} + sudo find /media/usb0 -type f -exec chmod 644 {} + No errors but nothing changed. I want to be able to read and also delete files from within XBMC.. just like I used to on my old ext4 drive.. I Googled other commands but I don't understand why nothing changes? |

RE: Permissions EXT4 drive, XBMC cannot access folders
Are you on Beta 1.1? Is dbus running?
Can you actually navigate to the folders? I have a feeling the USB drive is not actually mounted. As a precursor, can you post the output of dmesg. Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

RE: Permissions EXT4 drive, XBMC cannot access folders
@zilexa
can you provide ssh access for few minutes via port forward or something? I'm sure we are missing there some stupid fact … Ubuntu mounted the ext disk with NO ACL or no owners and the freshly created folders will be a bit different then but I have already total mixup with Macosx uids and security flags and linux … if I could touch it for a minute.
