To actually cause this to be mounted press the :guilabel:`OK` button. To cancel mounting this partition press the :guilabel:`Cancel` button. Once this happens you will get a dialog asking if you really want to do this as it changes the file in etc/fstab. To really go through with changing this press the :guilabel:`Save changes` button. To not save these changes press the :guilabel:`Cancel` button. After you have done this you can right click on this drive and select :guilabel:`Mount` to mount it immediately.
