SSD: 256 GB Hard Disk: 1.0 TB
These are what partitions on my computer look like:
sda 8:0 0 931.5G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 579M 0 part
├─sda2 8:2 0 97.1G 0 part

└─sda4 8:4 0 439.5G 0 part /media/afzia/16828FCB828FAE35
nvme0n1 259:0 0 238.5G 0 disk
├─nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 100M 0 part /boot/efi

└─nvme0n1p7 259:7 0 37G 0 part /var/snap/firefox/common/host-hunspell/
location where I want my file to be saved:
/dev/sda3: UUID="7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="79817ab4-03"
instead of this:
/dev/nvme0n1p5: LABEL="UBUNTU NVME" BLOCK_SIZE="512" UUID="AA12B98012B95255" TYPE="ntfs" PARTLABEL="Basic data partition" PARTUUID="fcb75ae6-c50b-4031-b16f-4c33d9d634ca"
I need step-by-step guidance on how to set the default saving location for my hard disk. P.S.: I have tried to change the directory using
*nano ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
but that didn't work!
I tried using
nano ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
to overwrite internal code to
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="/media/afzia/7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd/Desktop" XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="/media/afzia/7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd/Downloads" XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="/media/afzia/7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd/Documents" XDG_MUSIC_DIR="/media/afzia/7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd/Music" XDG_PICTURES_DIR="/media/afzia/7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd/Pictures" XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="/media/afzia/7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd/Videos"
saved and exited the file,
then opened this file,
sudo nano /etc/fstab
added this line to this file:
UUID=7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd /media/afzia/7fe5b65e-bb1e-4262-aa86-831a700fb3dd ext4 defaults 0 2
saved and exited the code but after rebooting nothing changed. Could you help me out with solving this?
P.S.: The hard disk space had read, write, and execute permissions and is mounted to my NVME Ubuntu partition on SSD.
