Auto mount a disk drive in ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Bookmark directory not found)

Solution 1:

From the output of lsblk, before and after the link starts working, it appears that your partition is not mounted automatically.

Since it is an NTFS partition (looking at the output of sudo blkid), you can make your partition automount by adding the following line to your fstab file:

/dev/sdb6 /media/angel/DOC ntfs auto
  • If it does not exist already, create the directory to mount into:

    sudo mkdir /media/angel/DOC
    
  • Open the fstab file:

    gksu gedit /etc/fstab
    

    (you might have to install gksu first)

    and add the line:

    /dev/sdb6 /media/angel/DOC ntfs auto
    

    at the end of the file, save the changes.

  • Test your new entry by the command:

    sudo mount -a
