how to auto-mount partition in Debian
 

I have seperate partitions for data and OS files, so when I boot into linux, I'm required to provide my admin password if I want to mount the data partition.

Is it possible to automount the partition upon boot? I'm using Debian 7 Wheezy, by the way.

Thanks,

Put it in your fstab with the auto flag.

Here's an example from mine. The first line is from when I was mounting based on the mountpoint in /dev (remarked out). The second line is what I'm using now, the UUID (when I make these type of changes, I never delete--I always remark out. It makes undoing a mistake easier).

Here's an LQ post on understanding fstab.

Here's a good article on using UUIDs.
