My disk have 3 partition, one for system and others for store data. I can change its label, but I can not change path for that partition. My partition have a "work" label name, but I must input /media/dd7e8652-201e-4ea6-bb9b-8469091ecb25 to access in command line.

How can I access via /media/work command?

Thank for any command and answer :-)

You can use Tab autocompletion to enter the name automatically if you want. For example, do cd /media and then do just cd ./dd7 and then press Tab. –  searchfgold6789 Nov 27 '13 at 3:11
@searchfgold6789 some tasks can not be auto complete by press Tab key :-) –  Rong Nguyen Nov 27 '13 at 3:28

Check your fstab,Just edit your fstab.. here's mine.

NOTE: *The second colum is the mount path **I use umask=000 because of folder permissions on Windows<>Linux

If you have trouble with umask here's a good article:


# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
proc            /proc           proc    nodev,noexec,nosuid 0       0
# / was on /dev/sdb1 during installation
UUID=25677686-3338-406d-bb07-bcf2584cb8d9 /               ext4    errors=remount-ro,user_xattr 0       1
# /mount/DATA was on /dev/sdc1 during installation
UUID=79239C344158404E /media/DATA     ntfs    defaults,umask=000,gid=46 0       0
# /mount/VM was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=00602055602053A6 /media/VM       ntfs    defaults,umask=000,gid=46 0       0
# swap was on /dev/sdb5 during installation
UUID=dbca6161-c0ad-4646-8d49-6e5243433a76 none            swap    sw              0       0

Now, the issue is i can use autocomplete in terminal but when i list files by ls command, it doesn't show anything, althought i can use file manager to view a lot of files :| –  Rong Nguyen Nov 27 '13 at 3:33
