Looking for NFS boot howto after frequent filesystem corruption crash

    Hello,

    i got frequent file corruption system on a intel NUC with a SSD.

    Once every 2 month.

    Generally it happens while the NUC is freezing (could be while watching a film), the only workaround is a ugly power/cycle which generally ends with this file corruption system.

    On my Nuc my libreelec is also configured with docker with several well known containers related to HTPC world.

    Rebuilding/setup everything takes 1H to 2H.

    I am thinking about have the storage on a NAS (i have a synology DS1815+) on which i already rsync all docker folders, backup kodi configuration.

    I cannot find a tuto/howto which explain how to boot libreelec/openelec from a NFS share, or booting locally with all storage on NFS.

    Any help is welcome.

    Thanks in advance,

    Best Regards,

    Jean.

    Sounds like there's something wrong with your NUC as it shouldn't be freezing. What CPU is it?

    We recently added some fixes for Baytrail freezes (during idle, though, not playback) which are now in LibreELEC 8.2.3 (released about 5 minutes ago) so if you have Baytrail hardware it might help you.

    Other than that, first thing I'd check is that the RAM is OK (memtest86+, leave it running for several hours).

    Sounds to me like a ssd problem. You could try to use clonezilla to clone to a new disk, as backup.

    Then reformat or zero fill the ssd.

    As for storing & playing from the nas, you just need to remove media sources & add them via the network. using nfs ( I am not at home at the moment, but if you want more guidance about how to setup the synology nas just say)

    I don't know how to boot from nfs share

    I have a celeron nuc with Libre connected to a DS414 via nfs

    Thanks guys,

    Did no see any notifications to my questions...

    i suspect a SSD issue as well, i am wondering if M.2 format would be potentiallaly more stable than 2.5" format.

    However if i want to do a cloneziall i probably need a 2.5" format...

    I am already have my source on NFS but also use docker addon for various things (plex media server, transmission, etc...).

    I will buy another SSD and duplicate it.

    if i use libreelec linux shell, would it be possible to duplicate the SSD directly with a linux commands ? i am going to look for it.

    M.2 format? 2.5" format?

    I assume you are running Libreelec, that is probably ext4

    I am unsure of your setup, but I would put the old ssd into an enclosure, put a new ssd in another enclosure, & run a live cd or usb version of clonezilla then clone the old drive, it might fail if there are too many errors.
