I'm fairly new to linux and I've been trying to synchronise my music on my dual boot system (windows 8 and ubuntu 14.04).
I have tried manually editing fstab and using the disks program, but no matter what tutorial I follow I get an error on startup saying that an error occured while mounting to /media/storage (I made the storage folder and I want to mount to media so that the drive shows up in the places menu).
here is the blkid (the drive I'm attempting to mount is labeled gen-storage):
~$ sudo blkid
/dev/sda1: LABEL="WINRE_DRV" UUID="8A043EA6043E9563" TYPE="ntfs"
/dev/sda2: LABEL="SYSTEM_DRV" UUID="EE41-0723" TYPE="vfat"
/dev/sda3: LABEL="LRS_ESP" UUID="8241-4B8C" TYPE="vfat"
/dev/sda5: LABEL="Windows8_OS" UUID="983444A634448968" TYPE="ntfs"
/dev/sda6: LABEL="gen-storage" UUID="EE24706024702DA9" TYPE="ntfs"
/dev/sda7: UUID="84e87c04-5a35-453c-82fe-435ee00ff863" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sda8: UUID="22c03c2e-cb96-44fd-b26e-254bc8d7887e" TYPE="swap"
/dev/sda9: UUID="80f099b5-7cb5-4f7a-8ed7-714c6dde26bc" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sda10: UUID="941E2E671E2E429A" TYPE="ntfs"
/dev/sda11: LABEL="LENOVO" UUID="CA984AD5984ABFA5" TYPE="ntfs"
/dev/sda12: LABEL="PBR_DRV" UUID="9AFA46DDFA46B573" TYPE="ntfs"
here is an example of one way I have tried to change the fstab file (from a tutorial):
# storage mountUUID=EE24706024702DA9 /media/storage/ ntfs-3g auto,user,rw 0 0
What am I doing wrong?
