Excalibur: automatic second disk mount failure

Avatar
Fernando

I purchased an Excalibur 16" with two disks, one for the operating system (OS) and the second one for data. The second one is not automatically mounted when starting the OS (Ubuntu MATE 24.04). I tried twice to add an entry to fstab unsuccessfully:

.- the same entry that appears in mtab when the disk is successfully mounted (/nvme1n1p1 /media/fernando/DATOS ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 0)


.- an entry identified by the UUID (/dev/disk/by-uuid/102bfaa1-57fc-474a-9938-a2fb2879889e / ext4 defaults 0 1)

So, which is the correct definition to have the second disk automatically mounted when the OS starts?

Thanks in advance.

Good afternoon, Fernando
Your fstab entry for the first section should be the UUID of the device (eg. UUID=<uuid>), after that it should be able to mount it at boot
You can also add it as a device (eg. instead of UUID, /dev/nvme1n1p1), however the first method is recommended as the device names might not be the same always

Thank you Samanta, however after several unsuccessful trials with the expression "UUID=xxx..." gnome-disks utility gave me the correct solution which I here add for others to consider:


 /dev/disk/by-uuid/102bfaa1-57fc-474a-9938-a2fb2879889e /mnt/102bfaa1-57fc-474a-9938-a2fb2879889e auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
