No permissions - Did I bonk my LUKS encryption? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Another user suggests youruser:youruser and not usergroup, if usergroup would I just use the Owner group or?

Thank you for your answer.

Will look into this if @wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 's suggestion doesn't work.

Will try tomorrow when I get up.

Would /dev/sda suffice as mounting point or?

Haven't set any permissions outside standard given ones by usage.

Thanks for answering.

No permissions - Did I bonk my LUKS encryption? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hello Linux Helpdesk. ;)

I use Fedora (currently 40), and have done for a while.

I always LUKS+Ext4 encrypt my local drive and decided to do the same to my external hard drive.

Last week I reinstalled Fedora 40 from a Bootable USB, but when I tried to access my files om my external drive it now gives me the error

You do not have permission to view the content of "Files".

I've read online it's due to me no longer being the "Owner" of the drive I was in my previous install of Fedora and now I'm a different user and apparently no users a part from Owner have any permissions on an EXT4+LUKS drive.

Is there any way to give myself permission to see the content again or did I bonk my backup? As a note, I DO have the correct Luks password, it shows me the name of the encrypted disk after decrypting, which is "Files"

Thank you in advance.
