      I have been getting the below error whenever trying to use a USB with RetroPie. I can mount it myself manually and it auto mounts fine for KODI.
      I can not find any information online about it. The only details Systemct1 provides is the exact error below [FAILED]....
      If anyone could provide some information on a fix. For now i edited the fstab to mount it, but i would prefer it to work as expected.

      See 'Systemct1 status usbmount@dev-sda.service' for details

        remove the usbromservice from retropie-setup configuration menu or ignore the errors (they are not important)

          Is editing the fstab the only way to get RetroPie to mount a USB drive then?
