I’ve been learning Linux (Ubuntu) with an old Laptop a friend was going to throw away.
I like it, but I’m not ready to switch. My biggest complaint… why the hell is it so hard to access an external drive??
I eventually got it, but now I can’t for the life of me remember the command line I used to set access for the first one to set up another one.
You can just use a graphical file manager in Linux like you might have been used to in Windows. When I open mine I see my windows partition and my USB drive listed on the left side.
I know Mint has one that I use all the time, but I’m not familiar with what’s in Ubuntu out of the box.
Nothing as far as I know. What’s the one for Mint called?
That's "Nemo".
The one that's used by Ubuntu by default is called "GNOME Files" or "Nautilus", in case you want to do some research on it.
I did do some research and I’m now using Nemo! :D
I went to bed after I figured that out though, not sure if it helps my drive situation yet.
