[EON] Cannot mount USB flash

[Ether Zero]

My EON NAS continues to boot and mount the ramdisk, but for some reason I am unable to mount the flash filesystem. What commands should I use to determine the appropriate device and mount mount the filesystem manually. I tried the usual suspects, but all I receive is "mount: /dev/dsk/device_name is not this fstype". The filesystem used to mount automatically before a recent reboot.

Hi ether0,

Please post the output of format -e? Your usb key probably needs to be manually fsck'd.

dre2kse,

Thanks, indeed, I already fsck'd it manually. I didn't realize that it was mounted rw. I thought it was only ro and remounted rw when you run update.sh. I need to check what's being written to it. IMHO, it would be best if, for example, logs are written to ZFS and the flash drive stays ro.

Hi ether0,

It is mounted rw for when an update is initiated, otherwise nothing is being written.
