I'm trying to use my Ubuntu computer as a file/media server, and I have four removable HDDs plugged in. After a fresh boot, two of them mount, or appear in fdisk or /dev/sd*, but they do appear in lsusb. After I unplug them and plug them back in, they appear and mount fine. I have usb_storage in /etc/modules, which was suggested somewhere, but it didn't help
My fstab:
UUID=4C10E94110E9329E /media/2TB auto noauto,nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
UUID=C6026AF6026AEABF /media/3TB2 auto noauto,nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
UUID=08A4462AA4461A98 /media/2TB2 auto noauto,nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
UUID=18A2F5C4A2F5A682 /media/3TB fuseblk noauto,nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
the 08... and 18... don't mount. (I switched 3TB to fuseblk because manually mounting it with auto complained that I didn't specify a filesystem)
trying to mount them after boot with
mount /media/3TB -v
gives no output
lsblk:

fstab
file to auto-mount them might fix the problem. Also, does this happen with all USB devices or just the drives?fstab
? Typical is to mount them in /media/fstab
entries?
