With TWRP, on almost every operation I get > Failed to mount '/preload' (Invalid argument) My device currently can not boot, and this may have something to do with it, /preload is currently in /etc/fstab, I can see the entry here with /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 /preload ext4 rw 0 0 When I try to mount it, I get mount preload/ mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 on /preload failed: Invalid argument Is there anyway to fix this problem? From my recovery.log, I have /preload | /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 | Size: 0MB Used: 0MB Free: 0MB Backup Size: 0MB Flags: Can_Be_Mounted Can_Be_Wiped IsPresent Primary_Block_Device: /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 Display_Name: preload Storage_Name: preload Backup_Path: /preload Backup_Name: preload Backup_Display_Name: preload Storage_Path: /preload Current_File_System: ext4 Fstab_File_System: ext4 Backup_Method: files I'm trying to flash LineageOS, but I'm really just curious about resolving this error message.
