To Mount Media on Linux

To mount media is to make the file system of the media available for access. When you mount media, the data stored on the media becomes accessible from your file manager.

To mount media, insert the media in the appropriate device. An object that represents the media is added to the desktop background. The object is added only if your system is configured to mount the device automatically when media is detected.

If your system is not configured to mount the device automatically, you must mount the device manually. Double-click on This Computer and then double-click on the icon that represents the media. For example, to mount a CD-ROM, click Launch, then choose This Computer -> CD-ROM.


Note –

You cannot change the name of a removable media object.
