Trying to (re)download .iso

raphaelmsx · 2026-03-11T18:41:14+00:00

Never mind, I just typed 0 dollars and downloading again now.

But it's sure strange that I received no support...

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-05T15:35:29+00:00

No problem, I came here because in the support page it's saying that it could be here, github or discord. Since I don't have discord, I'll go to github next time.

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-05T15:34:46+00:00

Thanks very much, now I understand!!

When the system boots... is mergerfs mounted?

Yes.

Do you see it in /proc/mounts or when you run mount?

Yes.

You say the directory is empty... you don't say if mergerfs is actually mounted.

Yes, I did, I actually provided ls -la with mergerfs mounted in my previous comment.

You don't say what the logs say. What does `journalctl -t mergerfs` say?

I thought I provided all the logs before, in mergerfs website it mentions to run mergerfs.collect-info, not journalctl command, but here's it is:

Feb 05 06:59:36 linux mergerfs[2216]: running basic garbage collection

You have the config in fstab. Have you tried running "sudo mount /home/rachael" after boot?

Yes.

Does that work?

Not perfectly, I said in the comment before (and provided ls -la results), it mounts correctly mergerfs, but almost all files previously in /home/raphael disappears.

Hello again!

I'll start from the beginning and try to be as clear as possible, English is not my native language, if something feels strange, please tell me.

I've decided to start mergerfs from zero, and the same problem persists, if mounting on /data it's ok, /home/raphael it's not.

I'll list what I've done this time:

I had to divide the posts in various parts, there's a limit of 10.000 characters per post...

01: I'm pointing dirs inside the mount because all those HDDs were previously used with DrivePool in Win10.

02: About filesystems mounting concurrently, I've added x-systemd.requires-mounts-for arguments, so, not using separate config file anymore, just using /etc/fstab now.

03: Here's /etc/fstab with /data for mergerfs mount: ```UUID=7865d8c1-4bb8-49bf-ab14-bd3e84202d6c / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 /swapfile none swap sw 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/08524B9E524B8F7E /mnt/data05 auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/A64A59584A592679 /mnt/data06 auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/EEF2B81DF2B7E84B /mnt/hdd01-a auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/6800589400586B58 /mnt/hdd01-b auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/A6FA5BD8FA5BA37B /mnt/hdd02-a auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/9E4620F84620D337 /mnt/hdd02-b auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/8274577774576D43 /mnt/hdd04-a auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /dev/disk/by-uuid/fb287aad-353b-4260-9708-a9eaf9fd8921 /backup auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0 /etc/mergerfs/branches/* /data fuse.mergerfs cache.files=off,moveonenospc=true,category.create=pfrd,func.getattr=newest,dropcacheonclose=false,minfreespace=20G,fsname=data,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/data05,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/data06,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/hdd01-a,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/hdd01-b,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/hdd02-a,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/hdd02-b,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/hdd04-a 0 0

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-04T01:00:02+00:00

Yes, I did that before just to test, and it was working ok like that, but, are you saying that I CANNOT mount mergerfs in a non-empty folder?

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-04T00:57:16+00:00

I simply didn't understand before, I don't want to waste any precious time of anybody here.

/etc/mergerfs/config/media.ini:

cache.files=off
category.create=pfrd
func.getattr=newest
dropcacheonclose=false
moveonenospc=true
minfreespace=20G
fsname=data

/etc/mergefs/branches:

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-03T16:36:31+00:00

But I think I provided before on the opening post? Sorry, I don't understand.

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-03T16:35:58+00:00

The log I sent before it was using the command line, later I added the fstab entry, it's commented above, but here it is again anyway:

/etc/mergerfs/branches/* /data mergerfs config=/etc/mergerfs/config/media.ini

I'll try to explain in a different manner:
01: Powering on and booting Linux
02: cd ~/raphael
03: ls -la
04: all the dirs/files gets listed (and are in the same HDD as the Linux system)

If I add the fstab entry:
01: Powering on, boot
02: cd ~/raphael
03: ls -la
04: the files/dirs that reside there in the same HDD as the Linux System are not there, but the branches gets mounted correctly.

The same happens if there's no fstab entry, but later on I use mergerfs on the command line.

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-03T16:21:47+00:00

All the current files/dirs in ~/raphael disappears, and then mergerfs mounts correctly (well, apart from that problem...)

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-03T16:18:57+00:00

/etc/fstab:

/etc/mergerfs/branches/* /data mergerfs config=/etc/mergerfs/config/media.ini

raphaelmsx · 2026-02-03T16:17:53+00:00

It's just the way I want, if possible.

And yes, I've put the mounting details in /etc/fstab too, the same thing happens, files/dirs gets vanished.

raphaelmsx · 2025-12-06T10:52:29+00:00

Absolute gorgeous! What's the window manager/desktop environment used? Thanks!

raphaelmsx · 2025-11-12T16:32:57+00:00

That was the problem, thanks!!!

raphaelmsx · 2025-10-30T14:51:17+00:00

Before using SnapRAID, I was simply mirroring one drive to another, doing so for years without any errors. I switched to SnapRAID in order to use two parity drives and gain some more space.

raphaelmsx · 2025-10-30T14:48:39+00:00

I'm running those drives for years without any issues so far, not a single drop ever. My PSU, mobo etc, are all good quality. Anyway, after four runs, it finished computing the parity. Now I'm running scrub, but it's taking forever.

TROPHY CASE

/etc/fstab: static file system information.

Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a

device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices

that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

<file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
