Automount external HDD when some app try access it files using symlink?
I try move all my VirtualBox's Virtual Machines from general system SSD to external bigger HDD(NTFS). HDD have no auto-mount, just mount when I try access it using Nautilus or Double Commander.
I think about:
When I mount this external HDD I receive path like
/home/mature/C253CF8F54CF3121/to use it FS. I can make copy of my content to some dir on this HDD and makeln -susing this/home/mature/C253CF8F54CF3121/path and path to VBox Machines. But I not sure this ID = C253CF8F54CF3121 is static and will not changed in future.Second: I not sure this HDD will be auto-mounted when VBox app try run this VBoxes using this symlinks.
What is correct way to realize this, if way exist in my case?
