Personal Paths - Sigurd - 11th November 2016
Hello,
after installing Maui 2 I have to recognize a small problem perhaps a bug. In the System Settings under Other and Paths you will find the paths for several folders. Here you can change these paths to make your personal settings. For instance I have 2 hard drives. The software, swap area and home folder is stored on an SSD. But my personal files are stored on a big SSHD. When I change the paths to my personal folders it works as long as the computer is running. The next new start of the OS and everything is back to the home folder. In Maui 1 it did work fine. I guess this is only a small thing to change the OS. Perhaps the next update might fix the problem.
Kind regards,
Sigurd

An issue we will investigate.

This sounds similar to a minor issue I noticed with changing the wallpaper. I have my laptop dual-booted, and I discovered that I can navigate to the mac side and link to a picture saved there. It will become my current wallpaper - until I shut down and restart, then the link is gone. I don't know if it worked in Maui 1 or not, because I hadn't learned how to do it yet.

This sounds like a different problem. The mac partition isn't automounted I guess causing this issue.

In any case , I think it is safe to mount (permanently) any useful disk partition with an appropriate entry in /etc/fstab.

Oh, ok, thanks.
Obviously something I did wrong (or didn't do right). I assumed that since I could reach the files, the partition was mounted - I'll go figure out how to make it stick.
