Investigation 1: How does Linux enable you to access two different drives without using a drive designator?
{{Admon/tip|NTFS Flash Drives|Most flash drives are formatted using the FAT (or "VFAT" or "FAT32") filesystem for compatibility with a wide range of computer systems. However, some drives may be formatted with another filesystem type such as NTFS (primarily used on Windows systems). If, in the following steps, your drive does not mount with the type "vfat", try again with type "ntfs".}}
 
{{Admon/caution | Important/warning! | The following operation will erase the contents of your usb flash drive. If you have any useful data stored on your disk, you must back it up first or use another usb flash drive that does not contain useful data on it. Do not plan on sharing the usb flash drive with the Windows course! You will be doing lots of tasks that may cause you to lose your data.}}
# Type the command mount. Describe the output of the command in your lab log. What do the fields of data represent? Use the man page for the mount command and google searches to find this information
