Unable to connect an external hard drive to a Plex server on Ubuntu Server
I am trying to make a plex server from an old laptop. Everything is ok until I start trying to get my external HDD with actual data to show up. I will attach what I followed to get to where I am. https://support.plex.tv/articles/2002886...-on-linux/ Following this I get to errors at the very end. root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# blkid|grep -i ntfs|sed 's/.*UUID="//g'|cut -d"\"" -f1|awk '{print"UUID="$1" media/ntfsdrive ntfs-3g permissions,auto 0 0"}' UUID=086df05d-2e49-4268-9953-8e4b46541afe media/ntfsdrive ntfs-3g permissions,auto 0 0 root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# ls -al /media/ntfsdrive ls: cannot access '/media/ntfsdrive': No such file or directory root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# sudo mkdir -p /media/ntfsdrive root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# ls -al /media/ntfsdrive total 8 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 11 16:03 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jul 11 16:03 .. root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# vi /etc/stab [1]+ Stopped vi /etc/fstabstab root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# vi /etc/fstab root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# sudo mount/media/ntfsdrive sudo: mount/media/ntfsdrive: command not found root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# sudo mount /media/ntfsdrive mount: /media/ntfsdrive: can't find in /etc/fstab. root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# vi /etc/fstab root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# vi /etc/fstab root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# sudo mount /media/ntfsdrive mount: /media/ntfsdrive: can't find in /etc/fstab. root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# sudo mkdir /mnt/spider sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdb /mnt/spider mkdir: invalid option -- 't' Try 'mkdir --help' for more information. root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# mkdir /mnt/mydrive root@plexladder:/home/plexladder# mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/mydrive mount: /mnt/mydrive: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. Could someone help me out here please? I am new to linux and plex.
