Install Steam games on external drive

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Make sure the file system is ext4 and make sure the drive is mounted when you go to add the library on the external drive. A lot of games won't launch on Linux if the file system isn't ext4
I use btrfs and have never run into FS issues with Steam. Hopefully the format isn't actually a problem for anybody else either.
