I want to mount my SD Card as /home/wb9688 by startup using /etc/fstab. My SD Card is formatted as ext4 and the UUID is 93afcc06-65be-4154-9b20-6593f14f6c93.

A normal user must have read and write permissions.

How do I do that?

First create your directory

sudo mkdir /home/wb9688

Note you need sudo since the dir is in /home, if you misstype and you mean to create it inside your home then you dont need sudo and command becomes 

mkdir ~/wb9688

Now add the entry to fstab

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

then add the following

UUID=93afcc06-65be-4154-9b20-6593f14f6c93 /home/wb9688  ext4    defaults    0   0

  • /home/wb9688 already exists, because my username is wb9688

  • Then you shouldn't use it as mounting point, create a dir inside it to use it as mounting point

  • Can I mount it as /home?

  • It's not a good Idea you should mount on non-used directory, when you mount to /home then you'll not see the content of old /home. for that it's better to mount it in a folder inside your home /home/wb9688/new-dir

  • And when I copy all content of /home to my SD Card?
