Problem: I mounted the drive using the command line or GUI tool and I can't pick that drive in the shared folder device dropdown.
Solution: Never mount a drive with anything other than the OMV web interface. This creates the necessary database entries to populate the device dropdown.
Is there a solotion for the oppsite of this problem? i "lost" a hdd and now have the problem that there is a entry of a filesystem that isnt avaible any more. i cant delete it, because i get an error message, that a special device isnt avaible. editing the fstab doenst help.
