plati Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 I have two other harddrives apart from my linux partition which I am getting sick of continuously mounting everytime I log on. I tried to edit fstab but it sort of scared me off. Both the drives are fat32, one is at /dev/hda5 the other at /dev/hdb1 and their mount points are /mnt/media and /mnt/share respectively. I would also like to create shortcuts to them from my /home directory, if you could also tell me how to do that, it would be good B) Thanks!

aru Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 you can mount them directly to your home directory instead of mounting at /mnt: # some place at fstab: /dev/hda5 /home/your_mnt_point auto defaults 0 0 or if you want to keep them at /mnt/ just create soft links: # some place at fstab: /dev/hda5 /mnt/media auto defaults 0 0 ............................ ~# ln -s /mnt/media /home/your_mnt_point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
