- harry8 5y agoIsn't that how it's mounted that matters there?
- shikoba 5y agoI never find an option to ignore permissions.
- MisterTea 5y agoThat's because Linux and OSX ignore NTFS permissions making it work more like FAT. Plug an existing NTFS drive from one Windows system into another Windows system and you get a similar issue where opening a home directory requires you to take ownership.
- shikoba 5y agoBut Linux refuse to ignore permissions on an ext2.
