SOLVED: Collection problem

[Afgin]

We can work through that.

What is the output of this command?

Code:

sudo cat /proc/mounts | egrep "/media/mutka/Seagatetwo|/media/mutka/Exos1"

dev/sdb2 /media/mutka/Seagatetwo exfat rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,iocharset=utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 0
/dev/sda2 /media/mutka/Exos1 ntfs3 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,windows_names,iocharset=utf8 0 0

/dev/sdc2 /media/mutka/seagate ntfs3 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,windows_names,iocharset=utf8 0 0

also added the third drive with same command

Code:

sudo systemctl stop jellyfin
sudo umount /media/mutka/Seagatetwo
sudo umount /media/mutka/Exos1
sudo umount /media/mutka/seagate
sudo vim /etc/fstab

At the bottom of /etc/fstab put this in

Code:

/dev/sda2 /media/mutka/Exos1 ntfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb2 /media/mutka/Seagatetwo exfat defaults 0 0
/dev/sdc2 /media/mutka/seagate ntfs defaults 0 0

Then save, quit.

Code:

sudo mount -a

This will mount all the drives defined in /etc/fstab.

Let me know if you run into any problems.

trying to unmount with umount. "target is busy" dunno which is using it

[TheDreadPirate]

Reboot. It will apply the new mount parameters during boot up.

Yea I did that, and this was a result after sudo mount -a

this is what the fstab file looks like. does UUID things interfere? Tried also with putting hash infront of them

[Afgin]

I have an itch that the problem with the Exos is that it is asleep. In the disk management there is zzz icon. It has only woken up by pressing the icon. Then it wakes and mounts

[TheDreadPirate]

Ah. The place we told it to mount to doesn't exist. I assumed the folders were still there from the previous mounts.

Code:

sudo mkdir -p /media/mutka/Exos1 /media/mutka/Seagatetwo /media/mutka/seagate

Then try "sudo mount -a" or reboot.

Hey. I did a reboot, and now it seems to auto mount! I didn't need to click on the icon. jellyfin server found and played the files straight. So it should be fine now I guess.

Now that second part where mounting is ensured before jellyfin launches?

[TheDreadPirate]

You shouldn't need to do that part anymore.

[Afgin]

Seems to work right.
You are amazing man! Thank you so much for helping me.

Was kinda scared at one point that something will go very wrong, but it all went perfect in the end.
