The usb_d1 device definitely is an external usb drive FAT-32 formatted. It has since been replaced by a 1TB drive formatted the same way. You can ignore the firebird data errors below, Firebird has to own the directory it writes to. roland@roland-Generic-Desktop1:~$ cp -r * /media/usb_1tb/ws_roland cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2002.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2580.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2576' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2556' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2558' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2570' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2006.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2592.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2573' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2562' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2010.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/test.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2574' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1993.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2557' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2004.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1995.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2563' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2560' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2559' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2003.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2009.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2577' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1992.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2543' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/2590_tax.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2000.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1997.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2571' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1994.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2578.fb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2578' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2007.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1999.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2575' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1996.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2005.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_1998.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2001.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2008.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot open `fb_data/tax_2578.fdb' for reading: Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/media/usb_1tb/ws_roland/fuelsurcharge3/DoeHistory.java~': File exists cp: cannot create regular file `/media/usb_1tb/ws_roland/fuelsurcharge3/SurchargeRate.java~': File exists cp: cannot create symbolic link `/media/usb_1tb/ws_roland/xpnsfbe/libfbembed.so.2.5': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create symbolic link `/media/usb_1tb/ws_roland/xpnsfbe/libfbembed.so': Operation not permitted roland@roland-Generic-Desktop1:~$ dpkg -l coreutils Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-===============================-===============================-============================================================================== ii coreutils 8.5-1ubuntu3 GNU core utilities roland@roland-Generic-Desktop1:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
