'chmod -R o+r targetdir' should work, but you might want to be wary about
proceeding to muck with your OS... heh heh.
So, are you particularly worried about the lost+found directory?
I think it is a place for OS recovery of lost files or inodes...
maybe someone can confirm that?
BTW, you can also 'chown -R me:me targetdir' where me:me is the user:group
of your normal user...
ciao and happy NYE,
Ben
