I recently rebooted my computer and normally I have my 2 internal drives and 2 external drives all mounted manually through the fstab file. If you don’t know how to do this, I wrote about mounting NTFS drives a while back. If you need help, just leave me a comment below.
Anyway, what happened was one of my external drives mounted, but to the wrong point. It is suppose to mount as /dev/sdg1 and instead mounted as /dev/sdh1. This probably isn’t a big problem for most people, but I have playlists that reference audio and video files from the external drive. Since Ubuntu mounted it to a different location, the playlist thinks the files don’t exist. The fix is fairly simple, here’s how to do it.




If you want to test it out, simple type ’sudo umount -a’ in the terminal and then type ’sudo mount -a’. All your drives should mount correctly from now on.
