iSCSI config is not written into config files #390

Open maximkrusina opened 7 years ago

maximkrusina commented 7 years ago

I was just fighting to configure Berryboot with my Synology NAS via iSCSI. After a few hours of fighting I found that for some reason are not written twi files correctly.

This will fix situation manually: uEnv.txt > change datadev=sda2 to datadev=iscsi cmdline.txt > change datadev=sda2 to datadev=iscsi

Without this correction I just see message "Cannot find my data partition"

Can happen if formatting failed on your first try. E.g. if you tried to use the "use existing files" format option with your iSCSI share, and that failed.

And then you select /dev/sda (the iscsi drive) from the drive selection dialog, use a different formatting option and that does work. Problem is Berryboot does not know /dev/sda is an iscsi drive in that case.

But I clicked on iSCSI / format / ext4 Tried on more sd cards and even more Sonology stations. Lot of different configs (with / wothout usr/pswd).
