Steve I use a line in /etc/fstab like this for just this purpose:
UUID= /mount/point/you/want ext4 defaults,noexec,noauto 0 2 Rememer to mkdir -p the mount point you want. And it doesn't have to be /media. The noexec means nothing can run from the device - not even root. You may not want that situation All the best Keith Bainbridge keith.bainbridge.3...@gmail.com 0447 667 468 On Wed, 24 Nov 2021 09:57:23 +0100 steve <dl...@bluewin.ch> wrote: >>Hi, >> >>I have an external ssd with two partitions.
