Subject: Help with auto-mounting a specific file-system.
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2020 06:37:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2638304b56ed648dd780625b49e3bb76@disroot.org> (raw)
Hello Guix!
I wanted to make use of my memory card slot in my X200-T and decided to use it to store cloned git repos. I have placed a 32GB card, with formatted btrfs file-system, with label "repo". I wanted to auto-mount this file-system at ~/repo. So I used the following in 'file-systems' section of my config.scm.
(file-systems (append
(list (file-system
(device (uuid "1234-ABCD"))
(mount-point "/")
(type "btrfs")
(needed-for-boot? #t)
(dependencies mapped-devices))
(file-system
(device (file-system-label "repo"))
(mount-point "/home/user/repo")
(type "btrfs")
(needed-for-boot? #f)))
%base-file-systems))
Now, the setup work and the file-system 'repo' gets auto-mounted at ~/repo. But I am facing two issues:
[1] ~/repo becomes 'root protected' and stays like that.
[2] Despite declaring `(needed-for-boot? #f)`, system does not boot when the memory card is absent/unplugged.
How do I overcome these issues?
Thank you!
Regards,
RG.
