Hi (as in help) list,

I put a spare hard drive into my pc and copied accross some files and directories.

I then took the hard drive out and put it into another pc.

I then ls -la with the following results!

?---------  ? ?     ?            ?            ? Data
This means :

dr--r--r     root root          Data
?---------  ? ?     ?            ?            ? john
dr--r--r      root root         john
drwx------  2 ford$ 1000     16384 Sep 11 17:03 lost+found
drwxrwx---  4 ford$ 1000      4096 Sep  4 16:11 music

Is there any good news or have I stuffed my directory (Data & john) backups?

To fix su as root like:

$ su - root
# cd   Data
# chmod 755 .
#cd   john
# chmod 755 .

Hope this helps.
