Posted: Tue Aug 08, 2006 3:25 pm Post subject: Problem with external USB HD |
|
|
I have an External USB HD, the filesystem I use is ext3 and my kernel is gentoo 2.6.
The problem is that I'm not able to execute a program from the external drive; the same program that I correctly execute from the internal drive.
How can I do for solving my problem? I have to execute a binary file from external drive.
Thanks for help!! |

Do you have execution rights on the binary?
What error do you get? |

Check that the partition is not mounted noexec. |

Seconded. Check in /etc/fstab if it is getting mounted with "noexec". Also, just do "mount" and see if it has the "noexec" option. |
