A mount point is a location on your directory tree to mount the partition. The default location is /media although you may use alternate locations such as /mnt or your home directory. You may use any name you wish for the mount point, but you must create the mount point before you mount the partition. For example : /media/windows

The /etc/fstab file serves as a cornerstone in the orchestration of filesystem mounts on Linux systems. As a configuration file, it holds the blueprint for mounting different partitions and drives with specific parameters. In particular, whether it's local disk partitions, external drives, or network shares, the /etc/fstab file dictates how such entities should …

I decided I'd start over and did a sudo umount /mnt/Share(s). After unmounting each directory I was about to use sudo mount -a and have my mount points in fstab all mount properly. The clue was in an answer that is no longer available. The answer author (iirc @heynnema) asked me to put file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 in my fstab …

To test the processing of fstab, I included a line to mount a local device, drive C in Windows. The line that mounts a local device, mounts successfully when the WSL2 instance starts up. The other line pointing to a Windows network share does not mount on startup, but I can mount it after the instance boots to a terminal CLI.

The configuration file /etc/fstab contains the necessary information to automate the process of mounting partitions. You would normally have to reboot your Linux system, after editing this file. There is a simple way which will remount all the partitions from your /etc/fstab file without restarting the system. Run the following command as root: # …

Tips for Connecting to SMB Share Windows 11. Ensure your computer is connected to the same network as the SMB share. Verify that the SMB feature is enabled in Windows Features if you encounter issues. Keep your network credentials handy for a smooth connection process. Use a descriptive drive letter to easily identify the SMB share.

Any ideas? Similar thread here, but …

Install smbfs.. Sounds silly that a package could fix this but when you use credentials files, the kernel diverts to the mount.cifs command rather than doing the mount itself. This package provides mount.cifs so should get you on the road to victory!. Edit: As Klaus points out in the comments, for 13.04 and later, you need cifs-utils.
