I have absolutely no experience with Linux, but here is my question. I have files on a drive saved from a client's Linux system which need to be copied and analyzed via Windows based software. I am using a nice bootable CD called 'Ubuntu' which boots as a GUI Linux OS.
I am able to read data from the client drive and copy it to an NTFS USB drive. For one particular folder I encountered a large number of files which are marked "Unreadable" because I am not the owner. Also, because I am not the owner I cannot change these permission settings. Is there a way to login to such an O.S. as the owner ? Does this require I approach the client and get username/passwords etc. ? Any help is appreciated.
