Mounting drives in silverblue?

I want to buy another 4tb ssd specifically for jellyfin. The other day when I was using fedora workstation, I noticed that sometimes when I rebooted my pc the drive directory changed, which is not ideal for jellyfin as I’d need to reconfigure the container each time. Mounting the drive to fstab seems to have fixed this issue.

The problem though is, I can’t modify fstab on silverblue. How should I approach this problem?

/etc/ is writable on Silverblue so you should definitely be able to modify /etc/fstab.

Like mentioned, fstab is editable on Silverblue. But you can also use systemd to mount the drive, in a specific location. Technically /etc/fstab is generated by a systemd helper or is used to generate systemd mounts, i forget which direction but there is already interplay with systemd.

Great, thank you I didn’t know that. I will look into it.
