= AUTHENTICATING FOR -mount =Īuthentication is required to mount Kingston DT microDuo 3C (/dev/sdc1) Note that -b = -block-device (to reduce typing) but I prefer long options for documentation: udisksctl mount -block-device /dev/sdc1 Procedure is:įind the ID of the block device you want to mount, using lsblk: lsblkįrom its size, /dev/sdc1 seems to be the USB drive I want to mount. Use udisksctl from package= udisks2 (in both Ubuntu and Debian). Udisks also relies on D-Bus, so might not be available everywhere. This mounts in the same way the desktop does -creating your own /media/$USER/device directory- but I think there are still arguments for a static mountpoint, especially when you don't want the path to change.
While you're reading this footnote and you're doing this on a desktop system, there definitely are arguments for using udisksctl, per wecac's answer. So I've added some polish from the other answers. There are also new mechanisms in higher stacks for mounting devices in a sane and standard way which might not always be available. This answer is almost 6 years old and while the core of it still works, things like fdisk -l aren't the most user-friendly options. When you're done, just fire off: sudo umount /media/usb You can usually use /mnt/ if you're being lazy and nothing else is mounted there but otherwise you'll want to create a new directory: sudo mkdir /media/usbģ. This needs to be mounted into the filesystem somewhere. Anyway, find it and remember what it's called. The more disks you have the higher the letter this is likely to be.
You're looking for a partition that should look something like: /dev/sdb1. To do that fire off one of the following (ranked in order of my preference): lsblk You'll need to know what the drive is called to mount it.
