When I give the command "cp file1 file2" then the error comes:
cp: cannot create regular file `file2': Input/output error
This occurs sometimes and it occurs when I am giving the command inside a
external hard disk which is mounted by "ntfs-3g" manually.
Why does this error come?
_
I always mount the hard disk in read write by the command "ntfs-3g /dev/sda1
/media/harddisk umask=0". cut, copy, paste works fine when I perform these
operations by mouse.
