Question about Linux

[jimy041]

So I´ve instaled Linux Mint alongside Windows 10. The issue is that I´ve got all my steam games on my second hard drive, and after mounting it on Linux when I head to steam and try to add the games library it tells me that it need to be empty. But if I try to create a new one it tells me that it cannot write onto the drive because is mounted as read-only.

I need help please because I want to do a bunch of benchmarks with Linux and DXVK in some games.

Thanks

I could be mistaken, but you can't use the same game install between Windows and Linux.

There are Linux version of some games, but they are not platform agnostic.

Okay and how do I create another steam library to install them. The system tells me that is read-only.

You'd do that from within the running Linux OS.

Okay thank you so much for your help, but I finally got it working by mounting the drive in another way anyways thank you. I also tested what you told me and I´m able to do it too. Thank you!!!!!
