stevesr0
Hi Brian,
The point I was trying to make was that, I believe that when for example
sudo mount /sda5 /home/stevesr0/Music
Is performed, you cannot also do
sudo mount /sda5 /home/stevesr0/Videos
and expect that the two directories will exist with different contents.
APPARENTLY, there ARE ways of doing this using “bind”, “hidden files” or other techniques, but I am of course noobie-ignorant of these.
Symlinks which were suggested are another approach, which actually sounds like the easiest way of proceeding (unless there are problems with editing the music files), but I thought the mounting approach was the most “basic”.
More importantly to me, is the notion that once you have created the “primary” directory, you can create subdirectories within them, which could be used for different types of tasks or entities. (Like /home on /, and /stevesr0 on /home). So, assuming the directory I created following Robin’s instruction is stable thru reboots, I could create subdirectories for different things related to music just by using the file manager (in this case, zzzfm). Which would also be mounted on /sda5 and automatically launched, without adding anything to fstab.
This would fit my “use case” for listening to music.
Again, thanks for your always useful comments.
