I tried this: |
| 20 |
# mkdir -p /mnt/root |
| 21 |
# mount --bind / /mnt/root |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
The bind-mounted dev/ does not contain all devices, in particular the nvidia ones are missing. BTW, I thought these were created dynamically during the module load. |
| 24 |
Then, for a quick test: |
| 25 |
# rsync -a /mnt/root/dev/* /mnt/new/device/dev |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
But it did not fix the issue. |
