Issue with mounting 2nd drive on boot
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You have to add the drive to a file called 'fstab' to have it be mounted on launch
If you want a video guide here's the one I learnt to do it from.
It is kinda annoying Linux doesn't seem to have a decent auto mount solution yet especially for people like me with 6+ drives in their machine.
I followed this video and the auto mount works, but my programs still can't write to it due to lacking permissions...
I have done the chown user command and that did fix the problem. My programs are able to write to it now. Thanks for the help
