Can not backup / export my IMG / RAW file
=>
my external HD / USB / storage is always RO "read-only" "read only" not RW "read-write" "read-and-write" !
I saw this questions a lot of time...
Q: I can not export my virtual HD file (like vm-100-disk-0.img) to an external storage :-(
i used "mount -o rw -t ntfs /dev/sdd1 /media/usb"
even "mount -o remount,rw -t ntfs /dev/sdd1 /media/usb" does not works :-(
Any ideas ?
A: it can be a permission or surface trouble...
Generally you use specific storage for this action so you can format the support with no fears.
So reformat i.e in ExFAT directly from the host:
1) "fdisk -l" to know the X and n values which will be used in the step 3.
2) Unmont your storage
BE WARN, YOU CAN LOST SOME DATAS YOU WISH TO KEEP BY FORMATTING THE BAD SUPPORT. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE OF YOUR ACTS !
3) "mkfs.vfat /dev/sdXn "
I HOPE YOU DID NOT LOST ANY IMPORTANT DATAS. YOU WAS RESPONSIBLE OF YOUR ACTS !
"mkfs.ext2" "mkfs.ext3" "mkfs.ext4" "mkfs.ntfs" exists too
