How to change user of SD card from Root
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I just recently got a Chromebook and now have Linux installed on it, and I am trying to get steam games onto my sd card. I initially had the issue in that it would not install anything on a drive with no execute permissions, so I reformatted the SD card into ext4 with Gparted. The issue I have now is that I cannot change permissions, and it has the user listed as root. I have tried multiple 'fixes' that I have found online, but none have been of any help so far. I tried just changing the permissions sudo chown yourusername /media/disk/ but of course, that did nothing. Any help would be appreciated.

can you provide the ouptup of that command :
(if your SD card is mounted there /media/disk)
ls -la /media/disk
Otherwise you can try to mount it from another user
mount -t deviceFileFormat -o
umask=filePermissons,gid=ownerGroupID,uid=ownerID /device /mountpoint
