This will open a blank editor and create a new.

To use the Music example again: sudo systemctl edit -full -force srv-dsmusic.mount If you need to modify it again just sudo systemctl edit -full path-nonstandard.mount Then start your mount with sudo systemctl start path-nonstandard.mount Then reload the SystemD daemon sudo systemctl daemon-reload Past the following and edit the mountpoints Įnable the systemD file sudo systemctl enable path-nonstandard.mount mount file with the path to the nonstandard mountpoint separated by - (minus) instead of forward slashes (/) sudo systemctl edit -full -force path-nonstandard.mount To create bind mounts in SystemD you need to create a. ** Please note that there is a more modern way to do this in SystemD instead of using fstab. If you want to unmount you can use the regular umount command like a regular mountpoint sudo umount /home/$USER/Music/dsmusic To contine the Music example: sudo nano /etc/fstabĪppend the line /srv/dsmusic /home/username/Music/dsmusic none defaults,bind 0 0 Then all your snap music programs will auto magically find the music files. Then bind mount /srv/ds music to that directory sudo mount -bind /srv/dsmusic /home/$USER/Music/dsmusic It's even possible to make this mount permanent by adding it to your FSTab sudo nano /etc/fstabĪppend the line /source /destination none defaults,bind 0 0įirst create a directory at /home/$USER/Music/dsmusic mkdir /home/$USER/Music/dsmusic Then you can continue to use your nonstandard mountpoint AND at the same time all your snaps can find your nonstandard_mountpoint data. Or mount -bind /nonstandard_mountpoint /home/$USER/directory mount -bind /nonstandard_mountpoint /media/$USER/directory Second: If one chooses to deviate from the worldwide standard that has been in place since 1979, that's perfectly fine, but then bind mount your non-standard directory so that snap can find it. First: Linux and Unix have a Filesystem Hierarchy Standard which Ubuntu and Snaps follow.
