could not copy my files into the mounted external hard drive
by cent_sangeeta from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6P3XQ)
Hi,
I am unable to copy my files to my external hard drive.
cp data.nc /run/media/wrf/My\ Passport/
cp: cannot create regular file i/run/media/wrf/My Passport/data.nci: Invalid argument
data.nc is about 8GB.
the following command gives,
lsblk -d -fs /dev/sdc1
NAME FSTYPE LABEL UUID
sdc1 ntfs My Passport 284EFC5C4EFC23EA
MOUNTPOINT
/run/media/wrf/My Passport/
I tried umount and mount the drive but I get following message
mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /run/media/wrf/My\ Passport/
Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened.
The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which
could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command
How can I mount the external hard drive to copy big files from server on it.
Thanking you in advance.
Sang
