Hi, I am having trouble with my media stored on an external hdd which hopefully someone can advise on..
When I plug it in while the system is running, it appears as "/media/My Passport" however if plugged in when the system starts up, it is at "/media/sdb1"
Since surely the "/media/sdb1" may depend on what other USB devices are plugged in, is there a way to always ensure the same mount point, no matter when it is plugged in?
I am guessing using UUID may help, but I am not sure what to do. Anyone else have this problem or a solution?
Thanks!
