Folders created in /mnt don't stick either
If I go to /mnt in superuser filemanager and create mount points, after re-boot, THEY don't appear either! WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?
When you edited /etc/fstab,
When you edit /etc/fstab, you need to add permanent changes before the "dynamic" line.
After doing that, if the mount points are still disappearing, provide more details on how you're creating them.
fstab
in mepis is recreated every boot.
you can see it happen in the bootup messages.
so it looks again at every usb port and hard drive.
there are big advantages to this, with one disadvantage if you haven't read the instructions.
At the top of my file it says
"STATIC entries below"
and near the bottom
"DYNAMIC entries below"
(my caps).
