Don't know if I can help, but the people who can probably need to know
more:
The kde file manager says the following:
Could not write to /mnt/.....
Are you doing this from the command line or a filemanager?
I have tried both from the filemanager in KDE and from midnight
commander..
Do you have the right permissions? If creating the new file, do you
have write permission for the directory you're copying to? Does the
destination file already exist read-only? (check by ls -lh)
Do you have enough free space (df -h)?
It is a flash drive.. I have enough space, the right permissions and so
on.. it is copying all the other files, except for the ones with
norwegian characters..
What does
$echo $LANG
say? (Given FC2, hopefully (something).UTF-8 )
[tortho@dsl-65-199 Jobb]$ echo $LANG
no_NO.UTF-8
[tortho@dsl-65-199 Jobb]$
What file systems are you copying to and from (at the very least
the output of mount would be useful)?
[tortho@dsl-65-199 Jobb]$ mount
/dev/hda3 on / type ext3 (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
usbdevfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbdevfs (rw)
/dev/hda2 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/sda1 on /mnt/flash2 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,user=tortho)
[tortho@dsl-65-199 Jobb]$
The one i'm trying to write to is flash2..
What are the names of the files in question? I managed:
One of the files is called nødbrannpumpe.doc
$ touch Skarphéðinn
$ cp Skarphéðinn /tmp
$ ls /tmp/Skarphéðinn
/tmp/Skarphéðinn
