I installed steam onto my SSD, but of course that can't hold very many games so I setup a second steam directory on my HDD.

However every single time a I restart my computer steam shows all my games in the directory as being uninstalled. However, when I click install I can navigate to the directory I made, select it, then all my steam games once again appear as installed.

How do I fix this.

Ubuntu 13.10

When ubuntu starts up it only mounts the partitions that it needs. Because your HDD is a seperate partition, it is not mounted on boot. This means that any program on your Ubuntu installation that uses a directory on your HDD will not be able to find it. For example, My music player's library is on my Windows partition. Unless I mount the windows partition, I will not see my songs.

You can automatically mount this on boot. Here is a guide
