  • I know I had a similar issue when I created another partition to be shared among my Linux distros. What have you done to change ownership. I will check my notes and see what I did but I think I used sudo chmod 777 which sets owners, groups, and everyone access.

  • I had a similar issue too. It happened when I created a full backup with dd command. In my /etc/fstab my mountpoints where identified by UUID. So my USB-connected hard drive had the same UUID as the normal one. In my case I only had to disconnect the USB drive and everything worked fine again. Can you tell what you have done before your probem occured?
