Mount folder via systemd

VoSed · June 25, 2018 at 1:26 PM

Hello! I need help with systemd mount script. I need use .kodi folder from other partition on my sd card. I can do this only using

Code

 mount <what> <where>

I did mount script for systemd but it's not working for me

Code: storage-kodi.mount

[Unit]
Description=KODI external folder mount script
Requires=kodi.service
Before=kodi.service

[Mount]
What=/var/media/SHARE/system/.kodi
Where=/storage/.kodi
Type=ext4
Options=defaults

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

systemd starts after the boot config already mounted the second partition on the SD card to /storage and since everything is hard-coded to use /storage/.kodi you cannot then mount another partition to that path. If the other partition is EXT4 you can always switch the boot config to mount the partition with the .kodi folder you want to /storage instead - assuming this is not shared with some other OS as that's generally a bad idea as Kodi settings are OS specific.

I have mounted .kodi folder with autostart.sh

Bash: autostart.sh

#!/bin/sh

sleep 2;
mount /var/media/SHARE/system/.kodi /storage/.kodi

but services (e.g. TVheadend Server) not start

ext4 filesystem

Code: mount

/dev/mmcblk0p7 on /storage/.kodi type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,data=ordered)

Check ownership id's and permissions. LE runs as root, but root still needs to have access.

System that uses the SHARE partition also runs as root (I have dualboot)

Maybe I need edit mount options?

Please use a pastebin website for 'dumping' your log files instead of hiding them under a spoiler tag. Thanks

Maybe the problem is with mount options nosuid,nodev,noexec.

nosuid,nodev,noexec

I don't know why, but I can't change these parameters.

**vpeter** · June 26, 2018 at 6:05 AM

Try this in autostart

Code

sleep 2
umount /var/media/SHARE
mount -o rw,atime,data=ordered /dev/mmcblk0p7 /var/media/SHARE
mount /var/media/SHARE/system/.kodi /storage/.kodi
