Linux: Mount external USB drive, move data

• Background:

My own computer network using dial-up mode, in order to put their own virtual machine in the server IP domain set as a local area network, and IP fixed down, virtual machine network connection using the bridge mode. So it also caused the virtual machine to be unable to connect the external network. (However, dial-up access can be achieved by installing dial-up software inside the virtual machine, but the virtual machines and host computers can only be connected to the Internet).

• Practice:

1. Configure the virtual machine settings:

2. Switch to the root account and use mount to mount the removable hard drive to a directory:

Things to note:

A) First you need to find the disk you want to mount, in the picture above "DISK/DEV/SDB:1000.2GB ..." This is my disk. The corresponding device is/DEV/SDB1.

b) on the top of the picture "Mount:you must specify the filesystem type" description I did not specify the mount file format, the correct usage:

MOUNT-EXT4/DEV/SDB1/MEDIA/USB/* Mount/DEV/SDB1 in EXT4 file format to/media/usb. */

c) The mounted directory needs to exist, and if it does not exist, you need to enter the directory to create the file.

d) need to use root privileges.

3. Uninstall
