I need to access a smb mounted usb stick from blender.
The old solution to open a .blend from the smb in Blender and then using file open to see the source path does not work on manjaro (or I am doing something wrong). The folder (~/.cache/kioexec/krun/153702_0/) found by this method is just a cache, the files I put there are not going to the smb share.
In the past, the location could be found in /run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server= but my gvfs folder is empty.
I guess it would work using
mount -t cifs -o username=netuser,password=hiddenword //IP-Address/…
but I would like to do it without terminal just by mounting the smb folder in dolphin and then somehow finding the correct path. I don’t want to make it permanent.
Okay, so I have to make it permanent.
Since it is a USB stick, it could happen that I plug a different one in the port, perhaps with different size or file system - if I mount such a different stick using the same fstab mount point in (if that is even possible), would there be problems like file/filesystem corruption?
