Bug ID: 255572
Summary: Unable to mount hard drive (hdd: not found)
Product: Base System
Version: 13.0-RELEASE
Hardware: amd64
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: misc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I recently moved to FreeBSD from Devuan Linux and hit a snag. My computer has
an SSD which I install the operating system to and I also have a 1 TB hard
drive which I typically mounted to /hdd on Linux for storing videos and other
things. I tried to do the same on FreeBSD, formatting both my SSD and HDD with
ZFS and mounting the hard drive to /hdd, but when I booted for the first time
afterwards the init stopped as it said "hdd: no such file or directory" (or
something similar, I'm posting this a day afterwards).
It prompted for me to use the shell so I did and checked /etc/fstab. This is
what it looked like (the values didnt align with the # comments due to the
letter length of the devices so apologies if its hard to read):
# Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass#
root / zfs rw 0 0
/dev/ada0p3 none swap sw 0 0
hdd /hdd zfs rw 0 0 0
I tried to change the device name (hdd) to /dev/ada1p1, but then it said that
/dev/ada1p1 could not be found. Checking in /dev/, the file ada1p1 does in fact
exist. I eventually removed the entry altogether so that I could boot into my
new system, but I can't mount my hard drive at all. I tried to mount it via the
terminal and it gives the same error (it couldnt be found).
It seems like its not a ZFS-specific issue, it appears this person has the same
problem with UFS:
