I have a ntfs disk which used to get mapped to media/A6505A54505A2B11_/. There was also a directory media/A6505A54505A2B11/.
Then all of a sudden it started to get mapped to media/my_name/A6505A54505A2B11/. The directories media/A6505A54505A2B11/ and media/A6505A54505A2B11_/ still exist but I have 'access denied' whenever I want to browse them.
What happened and how do I make it sure that this disk will be mapped only to the certain directory?
With the new versions of Ubuntu, the mounting points also use the username, so for example, my user is cyrex and my previous mount point was /media/xtreme. It now has become /media/cyrex/xtreme. If you want to force the system to mount that specific partition to your previous place then I recommend reading answers like this one which mention editing the fstab file and adding the appropriate information to mount a partition in a specific place.
I recommend consulting the manual: man fstab.
An example (Do not apply this) would be:
/dev/sdb1 /media/A6505A54505A2B11 ext4 defaults 0 0
This would mount the sdb1 device in /media/A6505A54505A2B11 with several parameters like assuming it has an ext4 filesystem.
