I have an Ubuntu Server 18.04 with only a snap of NextCloud installed.
I have added today a 4TB Hard Disk, I've created a unique partition with gdisk with a GPT partition table and then formatted using ext4.
Then I've restarted the system and I get the following screen message:
You are in emergency mode. After logging in, type journalctl -xb to view
system logs, ....
In the journal I don't see any error.
Instead in the startup I see that the system has problem mounting the drives.
- sda(ext4) is the main sata drive, with the OS, and mount fine
- sdb(ext4) is the new secondary 4TB USB drive, that started all the issue.
- sdc(ext3) is the old secondary 2TB USB drive, that I have to replace with the new one 4TB drive. Please note that before this drive was on sdb.
I've modified the fstab file in order to mount the drives at boot accordingly to their filesystem.
If I run fdisk the two drives are not shown
sdb (the new 4TB USB drive) is mounted, and I can list a sample file I've placed inside.
sdc (the old 2TB USB drive) doesn't mount as it says:
wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc, missing codepage or helper program, or other error
Please note that if I remove the new 4TB USB drive, leaving the old 2TB USB drive, everything works perfectly.
The issue is present only when I try to plug the new 4TB USB drive even alone without the old 2TB USB drive.
fstab:
