Hi, first post here.

 

After upgrading Armbian on my Odroid-N2 to 5.8.13-meson64, I can no longer mount using autofs, neither manually nor via systemctl.   The error message is:

mount: /home/<mountdir>: unknown filesystem type 'aufs'.

 

The Armbian Build Options information suggests that kernel builds include AUFS by default:

AUFS ( yes | no ): Include support for AUFS

 

Am I missing something?

Armbian version is #20.08.6 SMP PREEMPT Thu Oct 1 18:51:27 CEST 2020

Providing logs with 

armbianmonitor -u

 helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.

Thanks. The URL is:

AUFS has not been updated to 5.8 yet. Therefore it is not included.

Just gave it a shot with the last branch available but patching fails

There will be no support for AUFS for a couple of month: https://www.mail-archive.com/aufs-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg05822.html

Many thanks for looking into this.

I downgraded to 5.7 and AUTOFS is working as ever before.
