edgeLinux 2 mounts USB drive as /dev/sda causing zpool to fail
Since installing edgeLinux 2, I find that it always mounts my USB drive as /dev/sda after a reboot.
This causes the zpool to fail to mount, since it's configured as mirrored between sda and sdb.
I have tried a number of ways to get around this from udev to BIOS configurations but can't find any way to force my USB drive to be /dev/sdc.
The Gentoo version of edgeLinux didn't seem to have this issue.
Is there a way to specify the zpool by id?
I'm running Anstle One 4 core hardware with 2 mirrored 250 GB SSD.
Hi @colin
Thanks for contacting antsle Support.
I had similar experience with External Drives on my antsle One. In my experience, I didn't have any issues with the zpool but rather but antsle would try to boot from the External USB Drive so I needed to change the boot order.
I'll reach out to our Support team concerning this issue.
If you'd like to import by ID, you can use this command below:
zpool import ID
where ID is the ID of your zpool
zpool import -a
will import all available zpools
See attached screenshot for an example.
Thank you,
antsle Support
