    You can add them under /etc/fstab. Have a look at the man page for fstab as there are a lot of options.

    I just mount my usb flash drive from the command line when I need it.
    I do this as root because my flash drive is not listed in fstab

    Code:
    mount -t msdos /dev/sda1 /mnt/flash
    There are quite a few posts on this forum about mounting. Just do a search
    I am on a journey to mastering Linux and I got a bloody long way to go!!!
