Hi George, Yes this is true. I will try to narrow down this issue. Basically (from what I can tell) nodm (the display manager for the live CD) logs the user in without running starttorios. This means not everything is started correctly. We had a similar issue using SLiM on the desktop.
The current workaround is to mount the drives manually in a terminal. for example: lsblk # this will show all your devices pick one to mount and run: mount /dev/sd?? /media ##substitute ?? for the device you want, like a1 or b1 etc... # then to unmount run umount /media I will try to narrow down if nodm is not running something, or if the build method (not installing recommends) is responsible... @Nio do you have any suggestions?
