a DVD and I only know where they are. But I do have a question and this is one I don't know. If you plug in a USB hard drive from another Linux computer, I didn't think it would be able, without the password or some sort of, to look at it, can it? Yeah, you can, as long as the drive or the files aren't encrypted. And if they are, if you chose whole disk encryption when you installed Linux, or if you encrypted your home folder or just encrypted the files, then it's locked out. But, you know, it's very easy to recover files from an external hard drive as long as it's not encrypted in some way or another. And you just plug it in through a USB connection, you know, an adapter or something like that, and you have access to the file system. The permissions may not match up, but when you connect it through USB it still gives you access to the files so you can change the permissions and do what you need to make them accessible. That makes sense. Yeah, and that's what he's getting at. That's (34/44)
