Bro... I can't thank you enough for this. 20 years in the IT world and just getting into ZFS. It's been rough.. Until I found this. I love the pausing points for commands, to extra info and everything you displayed. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! Legit helped solve 15+ issues I was having you rock!
My brain *really* wants to type the "n" in the "umount" command. I don't type it, but it's like an itch. Every. Single. Time. Makes me think it's like this on purpose, like someone had a dark sense of humor. Great videos by the way, you're very pedagogical.
I started studying for my redhead certification and I know so much of the material already just from following along with your videos. You could seriously charge for these things. You've been an invaluable source of information
Very very useful journey through devices, thank you. I've always fumbled through any disk task but this has made things much clearer. I was also able to revive a USB 3 thumb drive that I thought was dead (it was formatted but lacked a partition file system, so simple and now good as new!). Thanks.
I learn so much from you its unreal! thank you so far for all the content. i like the way you explain how things work or what things do for simple people like me. 38 and still trying to get in to linux (windows user for over 25 years.) always wanted to learn linux but never put any time in to it till this year. purchased your latest book too. keep up the fantastic work jay!
Same here ! No longer a beginner in Linux but I still discover new stuff or understand way more what it meant thanks to him. Beginners keep it up. You'll wonder what you have been doing on losedos.
23:40 Thank you for telling me, I will mount things properly from now on. But that's why I love to use Linux it lets you do what you want :D you are the ADMIN of the machine
I couldn't access the new hard drive initially, so i had to take further steps: -make sure you are mounted to the new folder -then change owner with, chown username -R /mnt/yourfolder I was now able to save and access files. I then modified the fstab for auto mount at start. Great tutorial, danke.
Wow these series of videos are amazing! I can't explain how thankful I am for all the content you posted, I've learned a lot! Your explanations have a good pace and you put everything on super understandable terms :)
Awesome tutorial. You got me restarted with Linux. I've played around with it off and on but now i want to focus more on it and you video really helped.
Thank you for the tutorial even though I'm years late to it. This helped me revive a drive that I had been using for a Windows 11 system that was not behaving on Linux despite being a compatible format.
I love your videos so much. neat, noob friendly & to-the-point. I'm really looking forward to your fstab video. finally there is going to be a video which explains everything about auto mounting in boot in a beginner friendly way
This was [Tony The Tiger voice:] GGRRrrreat! I've been using Linux exclusively for the last 14 years, but I'm just learning this stuff due to some trouble I had with an SD card and a thumb drive...had fixed my problem already, but wanted a good understanding so I'll be prepared for next time......and now I feel like a pro! Thank you.
Thanks so much for the detailed video. This is the third video I watched to figure out how disk formatting and mounting works in Linux, and yours was the one that finally helped me figure it out. Thanks for all your awesome content!
This got me out of a rut. I was pulling my hair out trying to edit /etc/fstab to work correctly for a Nextcloud install. If I only used Linux a lot more, I would grasp the concept of partitioning and adding a file system to a hard drive, or any drive. Thank you so much!
I wish i have money to pay you for what you are doing, but im still a broken student. I have learnt a lot through your videos and i soon as i have a job i will become your patreon
hi, it's been a while but this subject is timeless (just like Linux) so to install exfat on the system @18:22 you need to change 'exfat-utils' to 'exfatprogs' - at least on Pop-OS Jammy (22.04 LTS) - in case anyone gets an error regarding 'exafat-utils' package. Otherwise... HUGE fan of your entire work. Thank you for dedicating life (spare time) in teaching lazy bastards like me :)
I am here for understanding how operate a cmd line debian, in short a Raspberry Pi (lite) machine. very helpfull video. Can't wait to watch the second one, with the fstab file 🙂
I'm a bit late, but adding this for others who are in my shoes. The flag used at 20:30 only applies to the mkfs.exfat command. If you use the mkfs.ext4 command, >use -L "label"< instead
@9:53 another good command for this is `watch lsblk` which will just refresh automatically after an interval it's much clearer like this (the screen just refreshes)
Thank you for you help and all your videos. I've been watching a lot of your videos and they have been super helpful for a beginner like me. You are awesome and keep up the great work.
Thank you so much Jay, you are uniq && sudo. I saw one of your most personal videos. The one you talked about being stubborn and achieve your dreams. You are such an inspiration! Quick update on your video. lsblk command on Ubuntu 24 is way less clogged with -e7 flag. It removes the annoying loops partitions. lsblk -e7
amazing tutorial, more advenced but this is most important to know how to manage disks, mount then and umount etc without gui applications. Next one what i want to see here is tutorial how to manage networks on terminal, wireless also and how to do it without networkmanager on gentoo or other distros. You help us alot :)
I definitely appreciate these videos you make and put out for us to learn from Even appreciate those security videos series you do (which is up to like 34 videos at the moment)
Excellent guide! I also faced a problem where I couldn't manage the new partition as a User. So I had to do "sudo chown user:user /mount_dir" to gain ownership.
Thank you, I am learning so much. BTW I found with my version of Ubuntu ,22.04 Jammy, when it came to installing the exfat option for mkfs I had to use 'sudo apt install exfatprogs'
nice and concise video! I hope you do a video on /etc/fstab that still has stacks of stuff in it that I don't really understand, i.e. user permissions, error checking, how to allow partition to be accessed by anyone, rather than samba. I hope you do do one.
Thank you sir, your explanation so clear but please add a separator for each sub explanation, it might make it easier for viewers. Once again thank you sir
thanks for this channel, it is much appreciated. Having been troubled by invalid blocks on a SSD (ouchy ;-) I sought advice and received: "Invalid blocks is usually a hardware failure. The drive is most likely dead or at least dying. With Windows by the way it should have not being fat32 but NTFS. For Ubuntu a better choice then ext2 is ext4 you seem to be working from some very old ideas" I've not got the time to pursue rehabilitation of the poorly SSD at the moment but will try again 'in due course'. Thanks again for this valuable resource.
Great video. Appreciate the content. I installed a baracuda 2nd hd, that I am planning on using primarily as the SQL server. my boot drive is an ssd. How do I install sql server on that drive? Do you ahve a video that speaks on that? Also, if i understand your steps correctly in the video, mount the HD, then fdisk to format it?

$ alias unmount=umount
@@spruce-bogey That’s actually a great idea, simple, effective. Thank you.
Yeah. And we also need an alias called "fsidk" to fdisk. Don't know why. That's how my brain tries to type it...everytime.
lol same here!!
OMG SAME LMAO
I learn soooo much from you every video! Priceless Linux tutorials!
Amazing job... You've summed up what's taking me many months possibly years of random research and summed it up in 30 minutes in a definitive manner
Thank you for the video.
The great thing about Linux, is that how to do things doesn't change much over time.
I started studying for my redhead certification and I know so much of the material already just from following along with your videos. You could seriously charge for these things. You've been an invaluable source of information
People are not same.
I'd love to get a certification in redheads. Is there a certification for brunettes too?
He does have a paid Linux Certification course on Udemy.

Very informative hands on once you have theoretical knowledge on the topics.
Thank you for putting this up!!

I got lucky today and kept getting served all the tutorials of yours that I needed to approach/wrap up a project! Another good explainer.
You deserve many more likes. Your way of explaining is perfect. Thanks a lot.
Awesome tutorial. You got me restarted with Linux. I've played around with it off and on but now i want to focus more on it and you video really helped.
This guy is so intelligent!
Came across your video yesterday, and my problems were solved And i had one nice Saturday... Thanks👍
A large thank you! As a newbie, you go slow enough for me to understand and feel comfortable working with the terminal.
literally greatest youtube video I've ever seen. tyxm!!!!

Thank you Jay for such useful information and your efforts sharing the knowledge.

Very helpful and exactly what I needed, Thank you!!
Thank you for teaching all this, I´ve learned a lot from your tutorials. My notebook is almost full (Kali Linux user here)
Your videos are absolutely fantastic and I appreciate all of the knowledge you share!
@9:53 another good command for this is `watch lsblk` which will just refresh automatically after an interval it's much clearer like this (the screen just refreshes)
Wow! Thanks!
Thank you for you help and all your videos. I've been watching a lot of your videos and they have been super helpful for a beginner like me. You are awesome and keep up the great work.

Thank you so much Jay, you are uniq && sudo. I saw one of your most personal videos. The one you talked about being stubborn and achieve your dreams. You are such an inspiration!
Quick update on your video. lsblk command on Ubuntu 24 is way less clogged with -e7 flag. It removes the annoying loops partitions. lsblk -e7
ncdu is an awesome tool that I did not know about until today so thank you for that!!

A very helpful video! Thank you very much!
This is a useful vid for all this device type stuff.
Very informative. Thank you 😀
Amazing video and explanations! Loved it! Thank you very much!

I hope you do do one.
very professional and clear
Very very helpful and clear👍🏻
who tf downvotes this
Maybe somebody old with bad eyes like me having trouble distinguishing the two little thumbs on the mobile being so close to each other.😂
someone who clearly sees his bs, he didn’t say how to properly allocate specific memory size to a partition
@@Lemon-e2ybingo. Another downvote for me
A hateful windows user or Microsoft employee?
Probably crowdstrike employees
Thank you sir, your explanation so clear but please add a separator for each sub explanation, it might make it easier for viewers. Once again thank you sir
Very helpful video!
Thank you for your teaching!
Thank you much sir.... ❤️❤️❤️... From 🇵🇭...
this video was a good refresh :)
I know how to do this still I watched. Very well explained
Great video. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for your tutorials.
Excellent presentation. I would like to see how your mount a USB drive to a Kubernetes cluster as persistent storage running ubuntu. Thanks
Great tutorials. Fantastic Thank you,
Thank you Jay.
I'm trying to mount a zfs pool to proxmox. Do you have a video more towards that?
Thanks again. This was a good foundation.
Such a wonderful tutorial. Thank you :)
Very useful, thanks
I learnt so much from ur teachings....are there any docs with the linux commands
Wow. This video was awesome. 😮
Thank you very much Jay that's was realy helpful
Great tutorial, very informative
thanks for this channel, it is much appreciated. Having been troubled by invalid blocks on a SSD (ouchy ;-) I sought advice and received: "Invalid blocks is usually a hardware failure.

Thanks again for this valuable resource.
Linode is pretty good for Linux in my opinion I think what will make it better is adding modules for beginners and advanced users
Really helpful, thanks 👍🏽
Thanks Jay!
Could you do a video about data / RAID scrubbing? (theory, best practices)
thank you jay you are the best.
Excellent tutorial. It helps me a lot.
Thank you , awesome work
Thank you Jay
Keep up the good work
Please do videos on fstab and crontab and cronjobs . Thanks for a very informative video.
Great video. Appreciate the content. I installed a baracuda 2nd hd, that I am planning on using primarily as the SQL server. my boot drive is an ssd. How do I install sql server on that drive? Do you ahve a video that speaks on that? Also, if i understand your steps correctly in the video, mount the HD, then fdisk to format it?
Would really like it if you ran through also using cfdisk, gdisk, cgdisk and parted.
at 21:01 you said that you covered the "forward slash" (/) in anther video, which video? how do i find it?
