What filesystem are you doing this on? For some kinds of filesystem,
the whole filesystem is owned by the user configured at mount time.
it's a VFAT system.
Yes it's true in /home/my_directory I can create a directory and I'm the
owner, but when I move it to the other partition, it became
automatically the property of root (the owner)!! Is there solution to
this???
