How to make exfat appear as a disk on Computer (RedHat 6)

I have a redhat 6 on 1TB HDD and another 1TB HDD with exfat format, anyway on Computer I can find the drive where redhat installed but not the exfat drive.



I do add a line to /etc/fstab for auto mount on specific directory but I am looking for to things:
1. Add xfat HDD in Computer as would be seen on Windows or MacOS
2. exfat partions UUID to put in /etc/fstab since using /dev/sdb1 is not convenient if the HDD removed temporary and flash drive added.

  • Please edit to show "what you have tried": how would you look for a UUID for a more well-supported partition type, and what does that method show for your exfat one? If in doubt I would look at ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/, because I assume that's exactly what mount does.

  • I assume you use the default RHEL6 desktop option which would be GNOME - It is arguably more useful for others if you edit your question to show the version of GNOME you are using... More specifically, rpm -q nautilus will show the version of the GNOME file browser. Or you can look in Help -> About for the version number, when you clicked on Computer.

  • Also you need to show the exact fstab line you used. On my version of GNOME, I think the partition should usually show up if you have permission; this permission can be granted by the user or users option in fstab.
