How to get Firefox to use an existing profile without moving or copying it?
I use Firefox on Ubuntu Linux, and it works fine.
For unrelated reasons I have created a new Linux Mint 22 boot partition, and I would like to use the same Firefox profile on both Linux OS-s, without having to move or copy the existing profile I use on Ubuntu. (The profile is placed on a third independent data partition!) I cannot find any information on how to do it. All information I find involves moving the profile, but then Firefox on Ubuntu would not be able to continue to use it.
I look forward to hear from you. Thank you. :-)

As I remember, I just went to about:profiles clicked Create new profile and pointed to this profile.

Great! Thank you! I was worried that my existing data would be deleted or changed, so I made a backup. And after "creating" my old profile, I closed Firefox. The only 'change' was a lock file, that indicated that the profile was in use. So again: Thank you!
