how to manual mount drives with UUID in fstab?

[millusions]

HI all,

i have a growing number of removable drives and i like to make mountpoints for them in mnt/ ,
for example this drive is in fstab
UUID=FAB67651B6760DFF /mnt/thevault ntfs-3g defaults,noauto,rw,noatime 0 0

but im not sure how to mount it manually when accessing machine through ssh,

is it possible?

thanks in advance

You should be able to mount that filesystem with either
sudo mount /mnt/thevault or
sudo mount -U FAB67651B6760DFF

No problem

btw, the rw option is sort of redundant as it is included in "defaults"

Other mount option tips:
- If you wish to allow ordinary users to mount/unmount (not requiring sudo), see 'man mount' for the "user" and "users" options
ntfs specific tips:
- If you wish to change the owner/group and/or the permissions on the ntfs filesystem (if you wish to make it writable for users or specific user, for example) see 'man mount' for the "uid=", "gid=" and "umask=" options under "Mount options for ntfs"
