I assume there is a GUI to do this somewhere, but pretty much you can do
it with your /etc/fstab file. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
has a good article on how to mount drives automatically with fstab. It
isn't too hard, though just out of curiosity does anyone know of a good
GUI for this?
