Hello all!
I literally just started using Linux yesterday to revive an older laptop of mine and I purchased a new Crucial BX500 1TB solid state drive for it to make it run and boot more quickly. I managed to figure out how to format it in NTFS and partition it appropriately. I can NOT, however, figure out how to mount it. I have done everything though the terminal and am trying to learn it the right way. Here is the plan... the command that I attempted to use was sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media/tyler
I have a 128Gb boot M.2 drive that I want to split in half and use half of it for a Linux mint installation and half of it for a Windows 10 installation. THEN I have this new 1TB drive that I want to format in NTFS so that both OSs can share storage on it. I think it is a pretty cool idea and would give me great practice! What do you think? How can I make this happen? Where can I START in terms of learning the basics of drive manipulation in Linux.
thank you!
