I don't think Hugin has any concept of a drive outside of what the OS mounts as a drive (removable or otherwise). If a drive isn't mounted when Hugin goes to add some images, the drive isn't there at the OS level for Hugin to see.

I have a number of SMB drive mounts in my fstab. Debian 10 changed things so SMB drives were no longer mount during the boot process. (Rather, it would try to mount them before the network was up, fail, and not try again.) There was a parameter I had to add to tell it to automount the SMB shares - x-systemd.automount.

Have you considered setting your external hard drive to automount?

I am updated Hugin to 2020.0.0.2f576e5d5b4a and when I sue the "load images" button I cannot navigate to my external hard drive. This was possible in the older version of Hugin that I was running. maybe there is a command line entry that I need to add to get Hugin to see external drives

        Thanks. For the suggestions. I may have just forgotten which
        directory to look in. I upgraded Hugin and it had previously
        been able to navigate to an external usb hd when loading files.
        I will check the media directory.

            If you want to find that same usb disk via Hugin in Ubuntu,
            you need to go to /media/<username>/<name of the usb disk>

                Any suggestions?
