![Why can I only mount external disk via CLI? ["SOLVED"]](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/fb1f33c8-f60f-4b3d-bc56-9f7b7438c752.png){kind=link}
System is Arch Linux. NTFS-3G is installed. I have had this problem on Gnome (Nautilus) and KDE (Dolphin). I already tried fixing it with Testdisk. No success. Any help is appreciated.
UPDATE: I have re-formatted the disk and it is working now. Thank you for all your suggestions and tips.
I have no idea what that GUI thing is you’re using to do the mount, but I note that the CLI and the GUI are not using the same mountpoint. Is it possibly the case that the directory
/mnt/storage2exists but/run/media/void/2TBdoes not?When I create 2TB It tries to mount at 2TB1.
GUI is the default Gnome file manager (Nautilus).
