Beginners • Re: Run USB image on a SD

It worked with the nofail flag in fstab-sd thanks all !

In order to have sda3 mounted at the fstab specified location when it comes available, what would be the preferred method, systemd mount unit or udev rule?

Regards

I've not tried either.

I use or See man mount

If you add x-systemd.automount to the options in fstab systemd will retry the mount on access to its contents.*

FYI: fstab entries are converted to systemd mount units on the fly during boot and those are what's actually used.

*: I can be deceptive though. ls /mnt/data won't retry but ls/mnt/data/foo will.
