The workflow failed with 'mkdir: cannot create directory: Permission denied' when creating directories on /mnt. Use sudo to create the directories and chmod to make them writable. Also added push/pull_request triggers so the workflow runs on PRs that edit it. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

The symlinks were created as externals-link and generated-link, but the build and cache steps use ./externals and ./generated. Rename so the secondary disk is actually used. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
The du commands scan the entire filesystem, taking ~1m45s per call. Replace with just 'df -h' which returns instantly. Remove the detailed input option and its callers. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
