I need to change the permissions on an internal storage drive I set up in my computer.
I'm trying to understand the options.
Permissions mean who the operating system allows to do what in a directory or file, right?
(This is the space I might put a summary/notes, if someday I understand this well enough to do so. Edited b/c I realize I might not understand this well enough to make the summary I'd like to make)
From /mnt/sda1, if I Left Click, Dir"Documents">Properties, I see I can choose Read, Write, and Execute for Owner, Group, and World.
Is Owner the Easy OS install on a USB that I'm using now?
Who is Group?
Who is World?
Would Group or World include the other OS installations I have on this computer?
What's the difference between those options, and the ones found under Dir"Documents">Permissions?
Thank you, kind forum friends, for your insights and answers.
