    What is the deal with permissions in linux?

    Quite a few times i have boot puppy linux live and have tried to copy file from the underlying NTFS windows HD only to get an error like permission denied when i try and copy a file to say a USB stick, i think some files copy but i seem to get permission errors with some files, very annoying.

    can you post errors? shouldn't be a problem unless you are copying files over files that are currently read only
