Hi All,    I had to replace the second hard drive on a single boot 
system. I have Ubuntu  8.04 on the first drive.  I partitioned the 
second drive using the live Ubuntu cd.  The drive belongs to root and I, 
as user, cannot add and remove files.  I kinda know how to change 
permissions on a file, but have not figured out how to change a drive.  
Everything I'm reading refers to changing permissions on a file but I am 
working with a drive.  Can I get some help here.
                                                                       
               Doug
