troubleshoot mounting issues on Ubuntu
troubleshoot mounting issues on Ubuntu
USB disks need time to connect before they appear on startup. I avoid changing fstab because it poses a risk of damaging your system. Any suggestions? (Ignore comments) I added a short pause and it seems to fix the issue, but it slows everything down since each command waits for the drives to mount. Is there another method without pausing? Does it work asynchronously?
I've modified fstab several times without problems. I don't know how well it handles unplugging devices, though I can't confirm if plugging it back in will restore them.
