How can I automount my hard disk partitions?

/etc/fstab is a configuration file that contains information of all the partitions and storage devices in your computer.

Make an entry there as below:

/dev/hdb1   /home   ext2    defaults    0 0

etc ... just change partition names , mount points , Fstype.

Your partition will be mounted on next boot.

• Install pysdm
• After installation it will be found under System > Administration > Storage Device Manager

• Select your partition from the partition list and click Mount and then Apply.
• Also for more information you can check this post.

Search for "disks" from dash home. After you click the application called Disks, you should get a window something similar to this.

Click the Partition you would want and click the gear icon you see below it. Click Edit mount options. You will be presented with a window. Enable the automatic mount options by just sliding it to ON. Do this for all the partitions you want. And you are done! After next reboot, all the selected partitions will be mounted automatically.

Download a utility called pysdm. When installed it should show up as Storage Device Manager under System > Administration. You can then set the drive to automatically mount from there.

What it actually does is alter a file on your system called fstab, which tells your system what filesystems to expect, but it's much easier to use the utility to edit it rather than doing it manually.
