Hi everyone (and also "Hello World!!")
I'm yet another one of those whom have migrated/evolved from Windows to the thrills and wonders of what an open source OS has to offer, so far I enjoy things tremendously. I started with Linux Mint but wanted to try something else so I installed Kubuntu which I'll keep using. I've found my dist
I have Kubuntu 24.04 installed on one smaller drive (Kingston SV300S37A120G) and I know that it is not the fastest of my two drives but I've been using that as the OS drive for years and would like to keep it that way.
Storage for games, downloads and everything besides the OS would be stored on the m.2 stick (Crucial CT4000P3SSD8) where there's plenty of room. I know that Windows gives the user options on which drive software gets installed and Linux works in a different way. I'll install Gimp sometime in the future and prehaps a File Manager (like Norton Commander, Total Commander)
Since I love gaming I installed Steam (Steam Beta Branch:Stable Client, Steam Version:1721173382) and Heroic (2.14.1). I have no problems installing and running games with Heroic on the m.2 stick (Crucial CT4000P3SSD8). I've must have done something wrong when I edited the fstab since I cannot add any folder from the m.2 stick as storage in Steam which annoys me and is the thing I need help from you with.
I have this line added to fstab so that my m.2 stick would be mounted when the system boots, I've tried both with ntfs and ntfs-3g in fstab but it makes no difference.
Im pretty sure that Root is the owner of m.2 partition.
I hope you guys can help me out, I think Steam was installed not as a flatpack but I am not 100% sure.
