I have a partition mounted to /home
and want to mount another partition as $HOME/Steam
. The /home partition is encrypted and only mounted at login (not by fstab btw), while the Steam partition is not and fstab will mount it directly at boot. When I log in, the home partition will be mounted over it and hide its content. It will appear to be empty.
How do I tell fstab to wait for the other partition?
fstab
, use.mount
units. That should also take care of your dependency problem because "If a mount unit is beneath another mount unit in the file system hierarchy, both a requirement dependency and an ordering dependency between both units are created automatically." – don_crissti Mar 19 '18 at 17:31
