<SNIP> Thank you to every poster. I used ... # sudo mkdir /home2 # sudo mount /home2 Which partially worked ... Initially I used the whole disk as one big folder, but, unable to place files as "user", I read enough about permissions to believe I needed "folders" so I created one. Now I have an mp3 folder in the former Win2K partition which is now fully available to "user" as well as root. I learned quite a lot from this problem and now hope the solution helps someone else too. Thank you all again. del -- D. M.
