Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hello,

Is this possible:


1. I use a USB drive to boot up puppy.

2. The usb drive has two partitions.

3. One partition is for the system itself (puppy) and is always mounted of course at startup.

4. The other partition i always have to mount with the command:

"mkdir /mnt/sdb1"
"mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1"

5. This always works fine but if i move to another computer the other partition "sdb1" gets another name.


6. So the question is can i for instance do this:

"mkdir /mnt/mydrive2"
"mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/mydrive2"


Question is: So no matter what PC i boot up with my pyppy usb drive (seconds partition) always gets the name "/mnt/mydrive2" ?

I want to create a autologin script for this but if the name always changes on different PC´s my script wont work..

Is this possible? i dont have to many pc´s to test on.. .



Thanks!
