<![CDATA["/tmp/mounts/" file does not exist or removed when upgrade firmware]]>Hello, I'm working with Onion Omega2 + and I updated the firmware, but it delete everything I had installed, no problem. But when I try to expand the memory there is no "tmp/mounts" folder, maybe the folder has change but i can't find it anywhere, so i can't make the memory expand.

Any help is welcome.

¿So theres no way I can fix that in this firmware version? If I can fix that problem would be perfect. I just need to know if the folder changed because of the upgrade or just don't exist in this version, or if theres another way to expand the memory in this version "Device Firmware Version: 0.3.2 b222".

http://repo.onioniot.com/omega2/images/
and download the latest firmware which is ...b223
and the do a manual flash of that. make sure it is the one for omega2+. if the problem still persists i would then try the first v3 which is ...b217. if it occurs in that firmware then the issue needs to be addressed by admins which could happen soon or never based on history. i would also try the firmware flashing using a sd card to emmc adapter with ~16GB emmc just to test if v3 is actually expecting emmc. but i do not have sd card to emmc adapter with 16GB emmc so i went back to latest V2 firmware which works fine for expansion. otherwise, just wait for additional replies. i've read that v3 for the pro automatically sets up the expansion on emmc. perhaps you need to have sd card or usb drive attached at firmware flash time so that auto script, if in fact it is also on the 2+ v3 firmware so it can auto expand to sd card or usb drive. that is just a guess, i never tried it.

The auto-mounting tool settings of the OpenWrt 17.01 based Omega2(+) firmwares (up to build v0.2.2 b202) and the OpenWrt 18.06 based firmwares (from build v0.3.2-b217) are different from each other.
For example:

  • on a 17.01 based FW the default auto-mount location is /tmp/mounts/
  • on an 18.06 based FW the default auto-mount location is /mnt/

In details:

Using USB Storage
Using a MicroSD Card
Extending the Omega’s Available Memory
IMO one of Onion @administrators should brush up these chapters (too) of the official Omega2 Documentation
(and some clarification would be nice 😉

How do we get the exact changes that followed a particular build? For example, finding whats's different between b251 and b250, both v0.3.3. I did not find this in your Github page here
