From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Being able to use a GUI for creating mounts is something people have asked for.

I know I can use smb4k to mount, maybe it could he extended to write a mount point at boot.

I know for me it's trivial to simply write a systemd mount rule, but it seems other people want to do it with a GUI.
