All partitions are automatically readable/writable by all by default. One would have to take extraordinary measures to restrict access to a partition.
In this case, the right question would be something similar to: "I tried mounting partition c while booted into my Debian install on partition b and got an error. Here's a copy of what I did and what happened:" Then we can analyze both what you're trying to do and why it isn't working in a single stroke. If the error is strange enough, we may have to ask you to try some different things before we reach the ultimate source of the problem. More likely, it will be a simple thing which we can answer quickly and hopefully point to an explanation. -wes On Tue, Jul 3, 2018 at 11:46 AM, Richard Owlett <[email protected]> wrote: > My universe is a single laptop. > It has multiple partitions with uniquely configured instances of Debian. > "root" always has the same password. > "Richard Owlett" aka "user richard" intrinsically has the same UUID *and* > password. > > Before the purists have terminal apoplexy, as far as security goes - I'm > the only one to have access to the machine. > > If disaster "MEA CULPA" ;/ > > I wish to create a partition readable/writable by all, to hold text files > of interest to all. > > I think I've done it before. > Can't remember how ;< > > Help please. > TIA > > > > _______________________________________________ > PLUG mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug > _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
