Bazzite - New installation Issues - NFS and Local storage

Hi everyone :wave: ,

Hope you are having a wonderful day :smile_cat:. I need support figuring out what is happening to my new linux installation. I decided to install Bazzite (for gaming purposes, windows annoy me a little). But there are some odd things happening.

  1. Connecting to NFS as I used to seems to work, but in the file explorer, two folders appear. It annoys e because I believe I just added one.

I added nfs share modifying /etc/fstab and added the following.

10.0.0.4:/mnt/Anime01-02/Anime01 /media/Anime01 nfs auto,nofail,noatime,nolock,intr,tcp,actimeo=1800 0 0

Not sure why the same Anime01 folders appears 2 times.

  1. Storage devices are renamed each reboot. For example, I have 3 nvme devices. Each time I reboot nvme1 changes its name to nvem2 or nvm3. This would normally wouldn’t bother me except that beacuse of luks, I follow a guide (link here) for unlocking the drives after loggin. An it makes a mess. :sob: Each time I have to update the /etc/crypttab with the correct device name.

Example:
nvme0n1p1 /dev/disk/by-uuid/a99f9c8c-37b6-43a3-8dea-8e266b622e1d none luks
nvme2n1p1 /dev/disk/by-uuid/d1a7015e-1cd1-41c5-b898-2de2a11c88c4 none luks

Not sure how to ensure that the device name does not change for the UUII to match.

I am no tech savy, so I hope to receive ideas in layman terms :disappointed_relieved: .
Also, I heard Bazzite is an inmutable distro, does my issues come from that?

Thanks, have a nice day :heart:.

I would recommend following the bazzite documentation for mounting other drives and network shares.
