    Hi, using a brand new VOXL flashed with 1.7.1 I'm having issues with the data.mount service failing with the following error which is preventing other applications which use it as a dependency from running:

    voxl2:/$ systemctl status data.mount
    ● data.mount - /data
       Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/data.mount; static; vendor preset: enabled)
       Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2023-03-02 12:58:04 UTC; 4min 44s ago
        Where: /data
         What: /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata
      Process: 1155 ExecMount=/bin/mount /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata /data -t ext4 -o noatime,nosuid,nodev,barrier=1,data=ordered,noaut
    
    Mar 02 12:58:04 m0054 systemd[1]: Mounting /data...
    Mar 02 12:58:04 m0054 mount[1155]: mount: /data: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda8, missing codepage or helper pro
    Mar 02 12:58:04 m0054 systemd[1]: data.mount: Mount process exited, code=exited status=32
    Mar 02 12:58:04 m0054 systemd[1]: data.mount: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
    Mar 02 12:58:04 m0054 systemd[1]: Failed to mount /data.
    

    Additionally dmesg says the following:

    EXT4-fs (sda8): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem
    

    Running the mount command manually:

    voxl2:/$ /bin/mount /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata /data -t ext4 -o noatime,nosuid,nodev,barrier=1,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc,discard,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.growfs,rootcontext=system_u:object_r:data_t:s0
    mount: /data: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda8, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.
    

    /data is actually mounted and I am able to write to it, this is the first time I have encountered this problem. How can it be fixed?

        @tom said in VOXL 2 /data mount error:

        @czarsimon Are you having this issue on every reboot?

        Yes, I tried re-flashing as well as completely wiping it using the qdl tool, same issue.

          @czarsimon Have you tried flashing the latest SDK using the full "wipe all partitions option"?

          ./install.sh -w

            @tom I just tried it, got stuck at the following step even after hard rebooting the device:

            ...
            Flashing: modalai_cal | m0054-cal-fs.ext4
            [------------------------------------------------------------    ]( 94%)
            Done Flashing
            [----------------------------------------------------------------](100%)
            < waiting for any device >
            ./flash-system-image.sh: line 624: 36563 Killed: 9               fastboot reboot
            [INFO] Waiting for ADB, if this takes more than 1 minute power cycle VOXL
            

            Nothing using adb devices

              @tom I tried restoring the superblock using mke2fs -n /dev/sda8 to find backups and then trying all of them with e2fsck -b <backup_superblock> /dev/sda8 All of them failed to restore the filesystem. I'm seeing this on multiple VOXL 2s so it's not isolated just to this one.

                @czarsimon Interesting, I've never seen it get stuck during flashing like that. Can you try forcing it into fastboot with the button (https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-voxl2-mini-system-image/#force-voxl-2-into-fastboot) and then using ./install.sh -w
