0 Koshur Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 never mind. I just figured it out. I did sudo su to get to root and then sudo gedit /etc/fstab and removed the noexec from the file. saved the file and rebooted. it works now...! :)) Charisma 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
