Adding an entry to fstab

So here we create an fstab entry for the partition:

1. You need to create the folder for the partition and get the device id.
   Open a terminal. The folder can be created via

   sudo mkdir /media/Data

   In addition I would make the user the owner and give him the right to read/write:

   sudo chown [user]:[group] /media/Data

   sudo chmod +rw /media/Data

2. Now the fstab entry:
   

   • Install libblkid1 to see device specific information: sudo apt-get install libblkid1
   • Enter sudo blkid and look for the stick. The output could be:

     /dev/sda2: UUID="32a4b76f-246e-486e-8495-31b8a781fb4c" TYPE="swap" 
     /dev/sda1: UUID="31f39d50-16fa-4248-b396-0cba7cd6eff2" TYPE="ext4"
     

   • Then we create the fstab entry: sudo gedit /etc/fstab and append the line

     UUID=31f39d50-16fa-4248-b396-0cba7cd6eff2     /media/Data   auto    rw,user,auto    0    0

     (and afterwards give a empty new line to avoid warnings).

To mount the partition, open a terminal and type

mount /media/Data

Because of the entry auto it should be mounted automatically on next boot.

First you need to find out UUID of your disk by following command

sudo blkid

Note your disk UUID.

Now open fstab file with gedit

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

Replace your old disk UUID with your noted UUID.
Save file and reboot your system. You will be able to mount disk.
