Can't add 2nd SSD drive to Steam Library
Hi!
I have 2 SSDs in my system. I managed to auto-mount my 2nd SSD to /mnt/games1 folder, and set the ownership, but I can't add my drive to Steam. Steam creates a steamapps folder in /mnt/games1, but nothing else happens.

Hi, how did you mount the drive?
Did you use a graphical tool like gnome-disk-utility or kde partition manager or manually edit the fstab?
I used KDE Partition.
Personally I think it's easier to install gnome-disk-utility and then do it from that
Are U comfortable using the terminal?
Yeah, sure. But KDE Partition seemed easier.
rpm-ostree install gnome-disk-utilityand then follow this guide

How To Auto-mount Partitions On Startup Using Gnome Disks
Gnome Disks has many uses, including partition management, S.M.A.R.T. monitoring, benchmarking, and more, including one that might not be obvious, but is very useful: it can set drives to mount automatically at startup.
lmk if that ends up working
Thanks, i did that, and it worked. Steam added my drive. I used gnome disk, and ext4 file system.
