I am running Home Assistant OS on a Raspberry Pi4 and i would like to add as media folder an USB HDD Drive or an USB Stick. I cannot find any information here about how to do this. I tried to add manually through the terminal but i get always “permission denied - are you root” answer.
Can somebody tell me where to find right instructions about it or a simple guide step by step ?
Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem. Although I am seeing a bit different error when trying to mount disk from cli:
[core-ssh ~]$ whoami
root
[core-ssh ~]$ lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS
sda 8:0 0 894.3G 0 disk
...
[core-ssh ~]$ ls -la /media/kingston/
total 8
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Dec 6 10:53 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Dec 6 10:53 ..
[core-ssh ~]$ mount /dev/sda /media/kingston
mount: mounting /dev/sda on /media/kingston failed: Permission denied
Did you manage to sort this out? Thanks!
