mount xfs partition failed: no such device
« on: May 13, 2017, 07:24:12 PM »
Boot tinycore iso with qemu/kvm,  xfsprogs extention installed. Virtual hardrive partition vda1 mkfs.xfs sucessce.
Mount vda1 as xfs failed, error info like:   mount /dev/vda1 on mp failed: No such device
mount command must specify  " -t xfs" option.

mkfs.ext4 & mount vda1 as ext4 sucesse. mount command no need to  specify " -t ext4" option.

So is there some bugs or i missing something?

TinyCorePure64-current.iso (8.0).

XFS is an advanced file system for Linux, which is not supported by default.
You'll need xfsprogs.tcz

Does this work:
Code: [Select]
$ sudo mount -t xfs /dev/vda1 /mnt/vda1

I am usinig xfs for a long time for real env, nerver met this mount error.
mkfs.xfs & xfs_repaire runs fine, mount xfs runs failed, mount point does not matter.
Maybe kernel did not compile xfs module in?

can you post the exact error you get from this:
Code: [Select]
$ sudo mount -t xfs /dev/vda1 /mnt/vda1
Ref:
Code: [Select]
CONFIG_XFS_FS=m
# CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA is not set
# CONFIG_XFS_POSIX_ACL is not set
# CONFIG_XFS_RT is not set
# CONFIG_XFS_WARN is not set
# CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG is not s
..is the module loaded?

Edit: the module is in the filesystems-KERNEL extension

yes, mount xfs vda1 suceese after install filesystem-xxx extension.

I suggest xfsprogs extension auto depends filesystem-xxx ext when it download & install.

Thanks.
