I am using Ubuntu 20.10, and many configuration are being removed after the reboot, like disk mount and proxy settings, and I have to re-apply them everytime, I am worried this might broke something in the files.

Is there anyway to permanently save the config?

df -kh

Reboot

Fix

mount /dev/sdc /media/cases2

mount /dev/sdb /media/cases/

mhddfs /media/cases,/media/cases2 /work/

  • What are the contents of /etc/fstab? – FedKad Mar 06 '21 at 11:16
  • @FedonKadifeli here

    / was on /dev/sda3 during installation

    /boot/efi was on /dev/sda2 during installation

  • @FedonKadifeli I have fixed the entries inside the fstab now, and I can see the two disks after the reboot, is there a way to auto mount the directory /work which is a combination of the two directories? – Omar Almomani Mar 06 '21 at 11:45
  • There you go. The devices you’re mounting after boot are not in your /etc/fstab file. Have the devices mount at boot and create a startup script that runs mhddfs when you sign in (or look at using an LVM to automate this) –  Mar 06 '21 at 11:47
