How to automount partitions in Ubuntu 13.04 and

Linux Mint 15
Friday, June 07, 2013

If you have other partitions than just the linux partitions in your computer, you will sometimes need to
automount them at startup, for showing up on your conky config, or continuing a torrent download ..
etc. With the old releases of Ubuntu and Linux Mint, the common advice you will find is to use pysdm, a
GUI tool, to automount the partitions. However, since Ubuntu 12.10, pysdm has been removed from
the repositories so I will teach you a trick to automount partitions without installing anything.
