0















I am using Ubuntu 18.10 in WSL linux in Windows 10. Whenever I open linux terminal with external hard disk I need to use command to mount the hard drive in the terminal. If I donot use the sudo command to mount the hard drive I cannot enter the hard drive directory.
Is there any solution for this. Please help me with this.



Thank you in advance,
