Auto mount USB drives
This can be done by fstab (filesystem table) system file. It can be found at /etc/fstab
. It has all the drive information to mount on boot.
We can append our usb drive information to this file.
PARTUUID=494aac82-01 /home/nitin-remote/storage/hp auto defaults,nofail,uid=nitin-remote,gid=nitin-remote,x-systemd.automount 0 2
-
We can provide usb drive path using
/dev/sda
etc but to play safe and ignoring where we insert the usb into which port, they have a UUID that we can use to identify them. -
auto
flag is tell auto mount.
