'''Perform this investigation on the VM named ''<u>fedora2</u>''.'''
#Create a directory called '''/storage''' (i.e. lab5 ''storage'' is a subdirectory of the root directory)
#Check the man page for <code>/etc/fstab</code> by entering the command <code>man fstab</code>
#Edit your <code>/etc/fstab</code> file to mount the partition <code>/dev/sda2mapper/vg_fedora2-lv_archive</code> to <code>'''/storage'''</code>
#Issue this command:
::<code>mount -a</code>
<ol>
<li value="5">What does that command do?</li>
<li>Confirm that the partition mounted and copy some files to it.</li> <li>Issue a command to list the contents of '''/storage'''. Are there any files? <li>Reboot the fedora2 VM, and verify that '''/storage ''' has now been automatically mounted.</li>
<li>In the previous investigation, we mounted the directory as '''/archive''', but in this investigation we automatically mounted it as '''/storage'''. What purpose does could this server for a Linux system administrator?</li>
