Everything should be mounted in fstab. Post your cat /etc/fstab.

I'm betting it's pretty easy to read.

Devices you mount after startup like external USB don't show up in fstab do they?

No and since systemd you actually can have an empty fstab file too (booting via solely automounting is possible)

No, their mount points are usually in /run/media/[username]/[partition_label]... or if it doesn't have a label, the UUID of the partition.

Yes, I know, but that's not automatic, and automatic mount-points vary for removable drives based on DE and distro.
