I have 3 HDDs in my PC: A small (160Gb) disks for OS and software only. Also 2 disks dedicated to various kinds of data. Both disks are 1Tb in size and SATA connections, have been named and are in the ‘Places’ menu. The only difference is that one disk ist formatted to ext4, while the other is formatted NTFS.
Firstly, I would like to now if it is possible to mount these disks automatically when I boot.
Secondly, there is a curious situation (to me) when I select the disks from the ‘Places’ menu:
The NTFS disks will just mount and display the disk icon on the desktop.
Selecting the ext4 disk will load Caja first and display : ‘/media/… is a directory’ ( in a red bar across the screen). Closing the Caja window results in the disk having been mounted normally.
So, it works OK, but goes through that annoying Caja step. I have not been able to work out how to adjust any settings to avoid that and would welcome any comments.
Thanks
