Permissions error mounting USB drive

And the purist would be right!

Despite working fine with Windows, the common factor is the USB extension cable:-

On linux01 with daily01, on "port01", using the extension cable resulted in an error;
On linux01 with all usb sticks, on "port02", without the extension cable the data copies and hashes.
On linux02 with daily03, on "port01", using the extension cable resulted in an error;
On linus02 with all usb sticks, on "port02", without the extension cable the data copies and hashes.
On linux02 with daily02, on "port01", without the extension cable the data copied and hashed.

So unless by some coincidence daily02 is OK and daily01 and daily03 usb sticks error but strangely only on port01 and not port02 and on both physical LL laptops, I conclude the fault is caused by the extension cable - even though it works fine on my Windows 7 and 10 units.

Conclusion:  compatibility issue with the usb extension cable, oddly restricted either to the physical setup of the (identical) LL laptops or with linux and not Windows variants.

Solved.
