Hi all.
I installed both the developer and release versions on a Octagon SF8008 Supreme but I can't find the device/mount manager. I need it because the internal Hard Disk is being seen as SD1 and the external USB as HDD but I want the Hard disk to be HDD as it does in every other image I use but I can't find it.
Should I install an external plugin or is it hidden somewhere?
Thanks.

Never mind, I have found what I was looking for in the system plugins.
A mod can delete this thread if you want.

An USB device will never be mounted as hdd, unless it is labeled as such.

 

The OpenPLi solution is, use "e2label" to label your usb device something else, or remove the label, so it mounts as "usb".

Well, it did in my case, I actually had both the internal SSD and the external USB Stick both labelled as HDD, don't ask me how it can be possible. I wish I did some screenshot before so that I could show you.
Anyway I solved removing the label and assignin the right one (USB) to the stick.
Thank you all for the answers.

ps. I will take a look at that "e2label", thank you.

Well, obviously, if you'd labelled them as such. The first device detected ( = triggered a udev ADD event ) will get the spot.

 

This is also why we have chosen for using labels, as other mount solutions, like fstab, suffer from the same problem, which is that you can't control the device enumeration at boot time.

 

What is sda today can be sdb tomorrow (unless both are devices on the system "bus").

I didn't label anything, it is a fresh install of the image and I'm doing everything from scratch to avoid old backups that carry outdated plugins in the new image causing issues.
That stick has it's own label but it's USB-32GB and has nothing to do with the HDD label assigned by the image.

Then I misunderstood, and have no idea. In OpenPLi, nothing removable is ever mounted on /media/hdd.

Never mind mate, the problem is solved.  :) 
I thank you for that code but I'm not a coder and would understand little of it.

Never mind mate, the problem is solved.  :)

 

I get that, but I hate it when I don't know why, so I might give the next person asking the wrong answer too ;).

 

As to the code, it says "if the device is not external, call it hdd, otherwise check what kind of device it is". Which suggests that for some reason, your USB device is not seen as external.

It is also quite rare that USB devices are enumerated before internal devices, as the internal bus is so much faster than USB.

I wish I could flash in an empty slot for recreating the same situation so that I could show you but I can't because in my Octagon Supreme the SD card where the extra slot go is buggy and doesn't work and also my other three main slots are already taken by other images.
If I find the time in the next days I will make a backup of this image so that I don't have to do it all over again and reflash. Not tonight though.
