Where should I mount my internal drive partitions?
As far as I searched on the internet, I came to know that
/Media = mount point for removable media that system do it itself ( usb drive , CD )
/Mnt = temporarily mounting anything manually
I can most probably mount anything wherever I want, but if that’s the case what’s the point of /mnt? Just to be organised I suppose.
TLDR
If /mnt is for temporary and /media is for removable where should permanent non-removable devices/partitions be mounted. i.e. an internal HDD which is formatted as NTFS but needs to be automounted at startup?
Asking with the sole reason to know that, what’s the practice of user who know Linux well, unlike me.
I know this is a silly question but I asked anyway.
My second and third internal drive are mounted to /home/username/datagrave and /home/username/backup .
I see no reason why I shouldn’t do it this way.
I’ve had some problems with mounting disks in my user home folder. I can’t recall the details, but it did cause me a headache at some point.
Thanks for the heads up.
Backups copy from backups to backups from backups to backups. Disk full.
Use borg
I have no idea man. Seems fine though.
