Description
What is this PR
Why is this PR needed?
I messed up and unintentionally deleted some user data this week.
This was because I mounted the same drive on two different folders (
/media/something/and/mnt/something/) and then decided I didn't want that. So I didsudo rm -r /mnt/something/and started deleting files. I immediately realised and hitCtrl+Cbut it was too late to prevent file loss entirely (at least only some files were deleted). Luckily looks like it's recoverable... 😅What does this PR do?
Adds a warning to the mounting instructions.
