Cannot access Fedora Formatted hard drives
Hi everyone
First of all, let me specify that I am a noob in regard to Linux commands, but I can find my way around, if carefully explained.
Recently I changed from Fedora 14 to Ubuntu Desktop 12.04, but now I cannot access all my previous hard drives.
When mounted (through Disk Utility) and trying to access them, I get "You do not have the nessecery permission to the contents of (hard drive name).
When I check on the permission tab I see Owner: 500 -user #500
I read while searching around that Ubuntu gives the admin a privilage of 1000 whereas Fedora gives 500.
Is there a way to work around that? And what should I do? I cannot reformat the drives as it contains informations.
They are all formated either on EXT3 or EXT4.
Thanks
PS: I tried chown and chmod, but I pretty much sure I'm doing something wrong here.
