Are you adding those drives to your /etc/fstab?

johannestoger commented 1 year ago

No, there is only the root drive in /etc/fstab:

LABEL=cloudimg-rootfs / ext4 defaults 0 0

Hi, I see that there is a "needs-author-feedback" tag on this, is there anything else that I need to add? @benhillis

Anything new on this? I still have the problem.
