[Techtalk] Migrating data from Windows to Linux

[Terry M. Roy]

Lambert and Meryll,

Thank you for the replies.

I first tried rsync with the --no-perms flag hoping that Mint would do 
its thing and put the proper directory and file permissions on the files 
being copied. No such luck. I'm not sure why the --no-perms flag didn't 
work but others seem to have had the same issue.

I ended up using rsync with the --CHMOD flag to set the permissions to 
644 for everything, then did an exec using find to chmod the directories 
to 755.
