Hello, I have had a pool of two hard drives in a mirror pool for some time but the OS got corrupted and I reinstalled the OS. Now I am on Linux Mint and my pool does not appear any more. When I use zpool import it says no pool available to import, I have looked around online and found you can import a zpool by specifying the drives, so I used zpool import -f -d /dev/sda1 -f -d /dev/sdb1 internal I get back my pool

pool: internal state: ONLINE scan: scrub repaired 0B in 00:08:39 with 0 errors on Tue Jun 18 18:38:40 2024 config:

NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
internal    ONLINE       0     0     0
  mirror-0  ONLINE       0     0     0
    sdb     ONLINE       0     0     0
    sda     ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors

But I am unable to mount the pool, zfs mount internal returns

cannot mount 'internal': legacy mountpoint use mount(8) to mount this filesystem

I tried using mount but I am not having any success, saying mount: internal: can't fin in /etc/fstab.

Is there any chance to get this pool back on the computer or is it a lost cause.

Thank you for the help.

Maybe @jimsalter@fosstodon.org can help. I'm not in my pool right now.

For anyone with ZFS related issues I'd honestly recommend just going to Jim's site- https://discourse.practicalzfs.com/ which is invaluable. Lot more help and a trove of valuable info already exist there.

Thank you will have to look into that particular forum. Though my problem has been solved for now I will definitely have more things that come up in the future and that seems like just the place for this sort of thing.
