Bug ID: 484450 Summary: Access error when trying to make backup from partition (to file) to any folder of another partition. Classification: Applications Product: partitionmanager Version: 23.04.2 Platform: openSUSE OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: andr...@stikonas.eu Reporter: rafael.linux.u...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY I have a partition drive ("BACKUP") that is not mounted at boot time. When I want to access it, Dolphin asks for the superuser password and there is no problem accessing it or creating folders or files. However, when I try to make a copy ("Partition, Backup") of a partition from another disk to this "Backup" partition (regardless of whether I have previously mounted the "Backup" partition with Dolphin or not), "partitionmanager" displays a window with the error message "The specified folder does not exist or could not be read", and I cannot make the copy. The same procedure, with other partitioners like "Disks" (Gdisks) can access to write to the "BACKUP" partition to write the copy file without problems. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Select a partition from "A" disk 2. "Partition, Backup" 3. In "Save file" window, select "BACKUP" partition in "B" disk (owned by root) OBSERVED RESULT "partitionmanager" displays a window with the error message "The specified folder does not exist or could not be read". EXPECTED RESULT Two options: - If "BACKUP" partition not mounted, ask for root password) - If "BACKUP" partition is mounted (from Dolphin) simply leave user select "BACKUP" partition and a folder.
