How To Mount A Drive In Linux
mount /dev/partitionId /some/mounting/point
The mounting point path must already be created with proper permissions. So a more likely flow of commands would be
mkdir /some/mounting/point
chmod 777 /some/mounting/point
mount /dev/partitionId /some/mounting/point
How To Unmount A Drive In Linux
umount /dev/partitionId
This command is very easy to type wrong. It is NOT unmount. Take another closer look if thats what you saw at first. It is umount -- no n here!
