I installed NCP using docker and changed my default storage location to /mnt/usbhdd/docker by adding “data-root” to the /etc/docker/daemon.json and I can confirm that NCP works fine and does activate in the default location but after it’s changed to my external drive everything looks fine but it just sits there when I click activate.

e,
As you can see it gets to NC init done fine and it appears fine, I’m guessing it’s some sort of permissions issue? I tried chmod 775 on the docker folder but that didn’t change anything.
Also, here’s my fstab, it looks ok to me but I must be doing something wrong and I don’t know what…
UUID=23935535-8bd8-4216-88b3-0d9dcdc3b0a3 /mnt/usbhdd ext4 auto,suid,dev,rw,users,exec,async,nofail,x-systemd.device-timeout=30 0 0
Edit: I solved my issue by loading up Linux Mint and reformatting the drive using gparted then making a new docker folder all through the GUI so there’s pretty much no way I could screw it up and now it works as I intended it to.
