NFS mount troubles

Johnson · October 2, 2021 at 3:31 PM

I have followed the wiki as I am trying to mount an NFS share for EmulationStation.

I can get the mount to work if I start it manually but when I try to enable it I get the following error

"Failed to enable unit: Invalid argument"

I have used all my Googlefu to try and find what I have done wrong and did discover that I had some how added a trailing space to the file. Running "systemd-analyze verify "my filename" gave me that clue

The share is on an UnRaid server if that makes a difference and I have added the mount file below

Thanks

Thanks guys, I tried removing the options and that made no difference.

But mglae well spotted! I cant believe I missed that, removed that additional bit of text that had snuck in there and it all works the symlink was created and we are now working
