manuti Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Armbianmonitor: http://ix.io/3moG The info from "df" show /dev/sda but "lsblk" show a /dev/sdc unmounted unit. The unit is reachable at /media/sata and is added in fstab using the UUID. What's happening? Thanks in advance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution lanefu Posted May 10, 2021 Solution Share Posted May 10, 2021 block device names can vary especially on USB.... it's best practices to use UUIDs or LABELS to mount filesystems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used UUIDs to mount via fstab. You can see it in the snapshot and I suppose this info is also included in armbian-monitor dump included. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still odd nevertheless. One a block device is assigned it should be consistent across those very basic commands, shouldn't it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A btrfs subvolume isn’t going to trace back to a block device. Would be interesting to look at the output of ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuti Posted May 11, 2021 Author Share Posted May 11, 2021 After mounting and unmounting several times both external units it seems to start working. Now the mount point at /sda is consistent across all the commands. The outpus you asked, @lanefu, is: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 may 11 22:57 d4e4d15d-d587-4f5d-83d7-4cbb1700e7c5 -> ../../mmcblk0p1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 may 11 22:57 dcb5a19c-6bd2-4c5a-8fc4-9ed4adec7074 -> ../../sdb lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 may 11 22:57 e6201983-bfd8-4eae-bf54-90575f09835f -> ../../sda I also added a new screenshot. Thanks for the help. And I'll keep an eye on this if it happens again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
