Using Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) to identify disks ensures reliability and stability, even when disk names may change. Moreover, automating disk mounting through the \/etc\/fstab file simplifies the process and enhances system usability. In this article, we will cover step-by-step instructions to mount a disk by its UUID and create an fstab entry. We will also explore the significance of various time settings like relatime, atime, noatime, strictatime, and lazytime, to optimize disk usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Obtaining_the_File_System_Based_UUID\"><\/span>Step 1. Obtaining the File System Based UUID:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step is to identify the UUID of the disk you want to mount. To do this, open the terminal and use the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>ls -al \/dev\/disk\/by-uuid<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Output:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>total 0\ndrwxr-xr-x 2 root root 160 Jul 20 17:35 .\ndrwxr-xr-x 9 root root 180 Jul 20 17:35 ..\nlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  15 Jul 20 17:35 00E8EAD5E8EAC7CC -&gt; ..\/..\/nvme0n1p3\nlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  11 Jul 20 17:35 5627befe-b7a4-48c7-ae19-a71689a67d7e -&gt; ..\/..\/loop0\nlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  15 Jul 20 17:35 B2E8-9A01 -&gt; ..\/..\/nvme0n1p1\nlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  15 Jul 20 17:35 E4CA6C29CA6BF5E8 -&gt; ..\/..\/nvme1n1p2\nlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  15 Jul 20 17:35 EAD2EB39D2EB08A1 -&gt; ..\/..\/nvme0n1p4\nlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  15 Jul 20 17:35 fc986af0-b252-4c73-a921-a7cb75eb4c5f -&gt; ..\/..\/nvme0n1p5<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Use this along with <code>lsblk<\/code> to find out your disk\/partition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Creating_a_Mount_Point\"><\/span>Step 2. Creating a Mount Point:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before mounting the disk, you need to create a directory that will act as the mount point. Use the following command to create a mount point named &#8220;crucial&#8221; in the \/mnt directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>mkdir \/mnt\/crucial<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use any name instead of &#8220;crucial&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Mounting_the_Disk_using_UUID\"><\/span>Step 3. Mounting the Disk using UUID:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To mount the disk using its UUID, employ the following command in the terminal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo mount UUID=bd4da364-6f99-4859-8ca4-326c89e9b11f \/mnt\/crucial<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Creating_an_Fstab_Entry\"><\/span>Step <strong>4. Creating an Fstab Entry:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To automate the mounting process at system startup, you can add an entry in the \/etc\/fstab file. Open the \/etc\/fstab file using a text editor, and add the following line at the end of the file:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>UUID=bd4da364-6f99-4859-8ca4-326c89e9b11f \/mnt\/crucial ext4 rw,lazytime,strictatime,nofail 0 2<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to replace the UUID with the one specific to your disk. This entry specifies the filesystem type (ext4), mount options (rw,lazytime,strictatime,nofail), and other parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Understanding_the_Fstab_Entry\"><\/span><strong>Understanding the Fstab Entry:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>UUID: The unique identifier of the disk partition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\/mnt\/crucial: The mount point where the disk will be attached.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ext4: The file system type of the disk partition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>rw: Mount the disk as read-write.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>lazytime: Delays the updating of inode access times to optimize disk performance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>strictatime: Access times are updated always.

Fast Reboot, also known as Fast Startup, uses hibernation to speed up the boot process. However, it may not shut down all disk properly, which can lead to problems when mounting NTFS partitions in Linux. To prevent data loss, Linux might mount these NTFS partitions in read-only mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure a smoother experience when working with NTFS partitions in a dual boot setup, you can consider disabling Fast Reboot in Windows.
