You have to be superuser to run this. Consequently, the 'su' command. The <TT CLASS="parameter" ><I >-c</I ></TT > flag will let you execute one command and return to your present working directory. The quotation marks allow you to enter more that one command.

When you do something as superuser (su) or root, root owns those files/pictures. Some of the things you may want to do to these files/pictures may give you a <SPAN CLASS="errorname" >permission denied</SPAN > error. This allows the user to work without those errors. Read the manual for more information.</P ><P >My system is set up with no USB or SCSI compiled into the kernel. All this was compiled as modules. This script file assumes your system is the same. If not, you will have to make some modifications. Please read the manuals and HOWTOs.
