* For technical accuracy.


I tried to mount a file system and got the error:

mount: <directory>: Not owner

Do these two steps:

1) You must be logged in as "root" when mounting partitions.

2) Enter the line: whoami

The output should be: "root". If it isn't, log in as "root" and try the mount
again.
