I have 2 disks in my PC: one is 1TB where I have installed Lubuntu and another one 3TB (empty for now). I see both disks correctly in Disks, Gparted and KDE partition manager. But I can not make it visible to my system (eg File Manager, Double Commaner).
My objectives are
1) create 1 partition in the 3TB disk
2) assign a label and mount point
3) use it "as usual" from any file manager.
Can you help me step by step? I tried with all three mentioned programs but I can't really make it work.
This is the output of sudo blkid

And here the current contents of /etc/fstab file:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
UUID=6362-D394 /boot/efi vfat umask=0077 0 2
UUID=9387db92-e022-4078-8fae-bf9359cc9edc / ext4 defaults 0 1
/dev/sdb1 /media/user01/2TB disk ext4 users 0 0
As you can see, the last line of the fstab file looks a little weird, right? I guess I should change the fstab file. To avoid modifying fstab manually, I tried Disk's "Mount at system startup" option. But I guess I will need to do it manually, right?
Here I show the information shown by Disks for each disk and partition:
lsblk -f
and add it to your question!
