Hi,

I’ve been unable to find a working solution for my problem; copying a programme from the hdd to usb stick.

I use linux so formatting the stick to ext 3 or 2 is not a problem.

The read/write permissions of the stick are:

fiona@tuxlap /media/9d4185ae-ffef-4847-a1ca-1ef0f5c71acf $ ls -la

total 16

drwxrwxrwx 4 fiona fiona 4096 Feb 10 12:43 .

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Feb 10 12:49 ..

drwxrwxrwx 4 fiona fiona 4096 Feb 10 12:43 .Trash-1000

drwxrwxrwx 2 fiona fiona 4096 Feb 10 12:43 TV

Each time I try to copy the file I get a message saying that there is not enough space available (on the stick), there is 3.5g available.

I’m getting pretty frustrated by this problem, surely it can’t be that difficult?

What am I missing?
