Mounting a second drive on loading.
by mathmate from LinuxQuestions.org on (#52ZQ9)
This is my first post, so if I am not following protocols correctly, kindly let me know so I do not repeat the same mistake.
I am running a Mint LMDE4 machine on VirtualBox 6.1.6 on an SSD drive.
I have formatted a 60GB HDD on the host hard disk in GPD format and have created a partition for running TimeShift, which completed successfully right after the partition was created.
On subsequent boots of the machine, the HDD is not automatically mounted, and therefore not available.
Can someone please show me how to mount the HDD automatically on boot, and if possible, in two ways. Namely, using Mint, and using a script, as eventually I would like to repeat the script procedure on a Debian server without graphics.
Appreciate any help or reading suggestions.
Thank you.
