I don't have a clear answer to your problem, but I'll highlight several things I've noticed:

all the directories have 777 permision (directories: asus, multimedia and bitcoin) to "media" directory I can't change permissions.

This is bad security, you should use something like 750 or 700.

is not an externa drive is just one 500gb HDD that I partitioned 100gb-for ubuntu OS- and 400gb-for bitcoin blockchain- (ntfs , ext4 I try with both but same error) see the picture https://i.ibb.co/NpM2kyg/not-working.jpg

Don't use NTFS, use a filesystem designed for Linux. Ext4 is fine.

the only way to work is if when I install Ubuntu I give the 400gb partition mount point "/home" but this is something else is not that I want cause will not show the partition like a device is just a folder.

Everything is just a file or folder on Linux. You could mount it as /home/asus/snap/bitcoin-core/common/.bitcoin if you want.

you can try it yourself without installing ubuntu you will see when you choose to safe the blockchain to a different location (a partition) will not work

Wait: did you install Ubuntu on your PC, or are you running Ubuntu LIVE without installation?

i know about the permisions , I just choose 777 to be sure (is just a test , I just want the block chain to be in a different partition)
I test it on ntfs , ext4 , fat

this will work only when I install ubuntu and choose the second partition (400gb) to have the mount point "/home" but this will not show the second partition like a different drive (mounted drive), a drive that I can mount it and unmount

I install ubuntu 6 times now(choosing diffeent type of instalation, with second partition having the mount point "/home" with second partition as ntfs , with windows 10 instaled on another partition and ubuntu in parallel ) and also try it with ubuntu live same thing, I can't choose to have the blockchain saved on a different partition.

I make a video, you can just see the error
