According to Wikipediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_directory_structurehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standardextra disks should not be mounted in /mnt/ according to the first link, but doesn't seams so according to the second link.Both say thought that they shouldn't be in /media.QuestionSo where should extra permanent disks be mounted?
Where in / should extra disks be mounted?

According to the FHS link that you gave /mnt/  Temporarily mounted filesystems.So I assume that you must mean permenantly mounted non-root non-system (meaning not /var/log or similar) filesystems. I've always put them in /mnt/fsidentifier and then symlinked to then where needed.So for instance, I had /mnt/website at  one point, /mnt/appdata, /mnt/whatever, then symlink that. I never mounted anything directly to /mntIf you wanted a clean solution, you could write a script to take the UUID of the filesystem, create a mount point for it (under /mnt or wherever you wanted), then mount the filesystem to the mountpoint.
