Noauto option in fstab is mounting at boot time !
This is not so with other distro’s !
Afterwards you have to manually umount the partitions at boot time.

Can you post your fstab to show us?
Is this an internal or external device?

It contains an internal and also an external drive.

I don’t think you should use " " for your devices.

follow the link that @BendTheKnee posted to further learn.

remove the quote marks from the UUID’s

This will not solve the problem.

I don’t know what to tell you. I do know that the quotes are incorrect formatting for the fstab file

can you see any errors in the journal?

8

Maybe change noauto to auto , just a tought.

I don’t think he wants them to auto mount. I think he wants to manually mount them when he needs them. I would just remove them from fstab if he doesn’t want them to mount at boot.

10

Exactly if that’s the case, why put them in fstab at all ?
Have to say the topic starter is not very clear in what he really wants to be honest. :grinning:

11

I don’t use ntfs so I have no idea if this is still relevant but maybe your fstab settings for the devices are incomplete

I found this with much different options. you could try to man fstab to learn more
noauto,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=0022 0 0

problem is solved now
thanks
