Hello everyone, after a new update with the inclusion of sysmaint, I had problems mounting a USB flash drive in the NTFS format. How can I open it now?
Now, when I connect my flash drive to the qube I need, I see it, but I can’t open it, it writes to me:
Failed to mount “name”.
Not authorized to perform operation.
Essential knowledge:
Specifically, see:
Applications requiring Administrative Rights during User Session
Thank you, but it’s not a solution, that’s why I’m asking.
Depending on what your definition of solution is?
Is there a way to make it work as it was possible before? Definitely, yes.
Is it perfect, no.
The solution is to understand how to open USB flash drives (especially NTFS) now, I don’t see a solution.
Even when I try to do it like this:
That’s a different error than originally reported.
That should be unspecific to Whonix. Probably some missing software package for NTFS support.
Should be same as on Debian.
Try resolve as per:
Because my first message describes an attempt to open a flash drive through thunar file manager and I wrote an error that gives me there, then I tried to do it through the terminal
I understand, that’s why I’m looking for a solution, because it’s all because of sysmaint
Did you succeed acquiring administrative (“root”) rights? If yes, then user-sysmaint-split isn’t an issue.
Via qube terminal - no, via terminal dom0 - yes
Why? After this update, I now can’t open the flash drive via Thunar File Manager, , so that’s clearly the problem.
It shows 3 options, A), B), C). Which option did you try and what’s the result?
