How to Mount EXFAT partition on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS #43

Closed practice closed 7 years ago

To mount exfat partition on Ubuntu, simply install the necessary packages:

$ sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils

If you need to mount it from the command line, you could do

$ sudo mkdir /media/exfat
$ sudo mount -t exfat /dev/sdxx /media/exfat

where /dev/sdxx could be /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2, or so on.

If you are not sure whether the exfat partition you are looking for is /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2, then you could also run

$ sudo lsblk -o NAME,FSTYPE,SIZE,MOUNTPOINT,LABEL
