@aplanas This is simply not possible. systemd-repart generates the file right before generating the disk image. And loop devices are not available inside of mkosi's sandbox. Your best bet is running whatever extra logic you need after mkosi has finished building the image. |

@aplanas What about changing systemd-repart to (optionally?) merge with an existing /etc/fstab file that already in the rootfs that we're building the image from? Would that be feasible? |

That wold work! This and the CoW subvolumes features can go to systemd-repart then. The x-initrd.mount issue that can affect the initrd should be missing. |

systemd reads /etc/fstab from the rootfs in the initrd though, I'm not sure I understand what this issue is about? |

Ah indeed .... I thought it was working like /etc/crypttab, that is read from the initrd. Sorry for the noise. |

I worked on the merge idea here: systemd/systemd#37238 If mkosi calls systemd-repart --merge-fstab --generate-fstab multiple times, this will corrupt the fstab in buildroot |
