Maybe you didn´t suffer through this thread between Jarmstro and mSparks (which should LONG AGO have gone to private messaging) like the rest of us have, but so far we are not even yet at the "simply install from Steam" level - we are still at the "install a working OS" level 😂 Sure, it may not be for everyone, but it sure is eye opening on the process involved. Regardless of the outcome, some really knowledgeable people in the community are guiding a Linux newbie install X-Plane, I think it's pretty neat. What's the difference between this and helping someone develop scenery, install planes or hardware etc... this is just much more involved but the end result is the same, get a working version of X-Plane. I don't read every topic in a forum either, only ones that I'm interested in. 😉

The disk? Do I type /dev/ssd2/ or just /ssd2/? This seems insanely hard! given the photos can you please just type it in full so I can copy and paste it into the terminal? I'd appreciate it.

"media" is where it mounts the drives Sorry what i wanted to say is if your drive is mounted then it should be under : "/media/jarmstro/" this is the location where ubuntu mounts so ln -s /media/jarmstro/X-Plane\ 11/Custom\ Scenery/ /home/jarmstro/X-Plane\ 11/ (Or if you install XP under just "/home/X-plane\ 11" Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus

I assume it is because it can read it's contents and I can manipulate its files.

March 1, 20215 yr Author I spoke too soon. The link is in the X-Plane folder but is broken. https://imgur.com/NSW0jTQ So close but so far. At least it did put a link in the XP folder. The path to the Windows drive cannot be correct. Edited March 1, 20215 yr by jarmstro

March 1, 20215 yr Author Yes. I have an option to unmount it. It's either /dev/sdd2. Or it's Disk1. We are so close.
