Cannot mount ext4 external USB drive
-
Hi,
my RetroPie installation fails at boot when trying to mount my external ext4 USB drive.
I've followed the instruction on the wiki, and after mounting manually (when I issued the df command the USB drive didn't show up in the list) my drive on /media/usb0 with:
sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /media/usb0
I've moved all the needed file on the drive with:
sudo mv -v /home/pi/RetroPie/ /media/usb0/
After that, I've modified the /etc/fstab file adding this line:
UUID=xxx-xxx-xxx /home/pi/RetroPie ext4 nofail,user,umask=0000 0 2
where xxx-xxx-xxx is my drive's UUID.
Despite that, when RetoPie starts I get the FAILED message when it tries to mount my external drive.
I previously tried the same with the same drive formatted in NTFS, and everything went as described in the wiki.
Any suggestion ?
