Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Everything should be mounted in fstab. Post your cat /etc/fstab.

    I'm betting it's pretty easy to read.

    Devices you mount after startup like external USB don't show up in fstab do they?

    [–] EddyBot@feddit.de 4 points 9 months ago

    No and since systemd you actually can have an empty fstab file too (booting via solely automounting is possible)

    No, their mount points are usually in /run/media/[username]/[partition_label]... or if it doesn't have a label, the UUID of the partition.

    Yes, I know, but that's not automatic, and automatic mount-points vary for removable drives based on DE and distro.
