Hi Jeff, O.K. I think I have done it correctly.
First, yes, the drive is NTFS and second I have installed (and in use) Extra Filesystems extension. mnt/Music is there and I can see all of the Directories and files. mnt/EXTBackup is also there and I can see the contents I ran the commands as best as I understood them and here are the outputs... /$ ~$ ls -la /mnt/Music -sh: ~$: not found /$ ~$ mount | grep mnt/EXTBackup -sh: ~$: not found /$ ~$ ls -la /mnt/EXTBackup -sh: ~$: not found /$ ~$ mount | grep /mnt/Music/ -sh: ~$: not found I also tried some variations.
