Look perhaps at your file browser preferences. There is may be a list
of filesystem types they bother to auto mount. I don't know.

This was only an **example** from another person (None).

I suggested to create 2 files:

  /etc/systemd/system/mnt-pdupre.mount
  /etc/systemd/system/mnt-pdupre.autmount

that will allow the automount of the sde8 partition, labbeled pdupre.

I forgot to say that you should make systemd aware of those files by
executing:

  sudo systemctl daemon-reload

then follow the rest of what I said.
