I gave up and started over. Maybe it should be clarified in the wiki that no mkfs should be done on additional volumes, as it's counterintuitive to some. > yes. rc.local is too late, unless you will also mount the volume from there > and not using /etc/fstab How and when then? > That depends - it has to be done before mounting.

This is likely incomplete. > Using something like "device=/dev/sdb,device=/dev/sdc" on fstab mount > options should also work. You mean as a substitute for a scan? On my other server the btrfs array seems to mount just fine without any measures to scan. I don't understand this, nor why no specific advice is given about scanning on boot in the wiki. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
