Post by: hypersonic on October 06, 2011, 05:49:00 PM

Can I use mnttool to mount partition from command line? Such "mnttool /dev/sda1"? Thanks.

Just "mount /mnt/sda1"

Thanks! I don't like to use mouse or touchpad, so this is very much easier.

Hi hypersonic
If you are doing this as a regular user you may have to use  sudo  like this:
sudo mount /mnt/sda1

You may want to get and read a good beginners Linux book.
We do not teach Linux here.

No, Vinnie.
I meant that for hypersonic.
He apparently has little Linux experience, and would do well to buy a good book.

Looks like I don't know anything about Linux, but it's not totally true (unless the basic). I just was mounting the partition with mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1, but that way is more simple.

And think... if I was REALLY REALLY newbie, i would be using Windows, or maybe Ubuntu. But not. After all, thanks for best distro I've ever used
