Lab Duration
It will take approximately 1 hour to complete this lab.
Exercise 1 - Configure User Mountable Removable Filesystems
The Linux filesystem uses the root as the base of a filesystem. Along with root, you can have different filesystems on different devices and partitions. When you boot a Linux system, the root (/) filesystem is mounted as part of the initialization process. However, the remaining filesystems are not usable until they are mounted at a specific mount point.
In this exercise, you will understand how to configure user mountable removable filesystems.
Learning Outcomes
After completing this exercise, you will be able to:
- Log into a Linux System
- Manually mount and unmount filesystems
- Configure filesystem mounting on bootup
- Configure user mountable removable filesystems
