It is a very specific problem with Linux on a Dual Boot system and external ntfs drives. And chances are you will never encounter it. But if you do, I hope this video saves you a lot of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Problem was that my ComfyUI Docker at my Dualbootsystem with Ubuntu suddenly stopped working. Every time I tried to run a workflow, the VAELoader node threw this error:
OSError: No such device (os error 19)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I ran through several approaches, made the docker new with another rocm version, checked for problems with the rocm installation at my host system, checked device mounts and permissions, nothing helped. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using ChatGPT for finding the solution wasn’t helpful neither. At one point it forced me to repeat the same step several dozen times. Of course without success, repeating a not working step over and over again does not make it magically working at one point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Claude then found the cause after just half an hour, my mounted drive with the models was read only. Windows leaves the drive in a state that cannot be easily used by Linux. And the solution then was that i had to change the automount string in Fstab to contain the term force. And now i am finally back into business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hey my friends, I was trapped with a problem for more than one week now. And it drove me crazy. So i made a short Youtube video about it.
