no, that rclone mount command has to continue running all the time.

so open a new terminal window and run ls /home/google_drive

49

ok , it display folder name "test" in joy_drive

50

great, the mount command works!!!

51

When I reboot , it can auto connection to joy_drive?

52

you need to use systemd or cron.

https://github.com/rclone/rclone/wiki/Systemd-rclone-mount

53

Sorry , I still have questions
I used the code with github , but when I try

systemctl --user daemon-reload

it said "Failed to connect to bus: 沒有此一檔案或目錄"

My dbus is in '/etc/init.d

54

better to use this that the wiki link
https://github.com/animosity22/homescripts/blob/master/systemd/rclone.service
and you need to post the systemd service file

55

I try and modify code(strong words) :

Wants=network-online.target
After=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=notify

And it said:

did you look at the rclone log file?

57

58

that is where the rclone log file is.

you need to take some time to understand your rclone command and read about each and every flag in the command.
