 Posted: Thu Oct 20, 2016 12:11 pm Post subject: automount external disc [SOLVED] |
 |
|
Today I purchased 2TB external HD ntfs formated. Up to now I automounted FAT32 flash drive only.
In my fstab was | Code: | | /dev/sdd1 /media vfat defaults,noauto,sync,users,gid=15,umask=0002 0 0 |
After connecting USB drive is /dev populated by /sdd1. In order to automount ntfs I changed this line like that | Code: | | /dev/sdd1 /media ntfs-3g defaults,noauto,sync,users,gid=15,umask=0002 0 0 |
and everything works fine.
How can I connect both, ntfs HD and FAT32 flash, at the same time?
Thanks

You can create two subdirs in media (e.g. ext-hd and ext-flash) and you can use UUID device, you can see this with ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ when attach external drive.
| Code: | UUID=24f28fc6-717e-4bcd-a5f7-32b959024e26 /media/ext-flash vfat defaults,noauto,sync,users,gid=15,umask=0002 0 0
UUID=8936b4b8-19ac-4d86-8978-8e6e9236f44a /media/ext-hd ntfs-3g defaults,noauto,sync,users,gid=15,umask=0002 0 0 |

That's exactly what I need. But I have another question anyway.
fstab now | Code: | UUID=F474B7AA74B76DCC /media/ext-hd ntfs-3g defaults,noauto,sync,users,gid=15,umask=0002 0 0
UUID=F012-DC91 /media/ext-flash vfat defaults,noauto,sync,users,gid=15,umask=0002 0 0 |
When I insert two USB drives into two slots the directory of the first inserted device is populated .
In /dev directory was created new device sde1 | Code: | ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/
.
.
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Oct 20 20:14 F012-DC91 -> ../../sdd1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Oct 20 2016 f29489be-5690-411d-97c8-c762a4a3a19a -> ../../sdc2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Oct 20 20:14 F474B7AA74B76DCC -> ../../sde1

but is empty.
It is possible to copy from one USB drive to another one?
Thanks |

apiaio,
Mount them both. Copy from one filesystem to another.
You need another fstab entry and another mount point.
