Hello Naresh,


Looking at the error from the log:

+ mkfs.ext4 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SanDisk_SSD_PLUS_120GB_190702A00D84
mke2fs 1.46.5 (30-Dec-2021)
The file /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SanDisk_SSD_PLUS_120GB_190702A00D84 does not exist and no size was specified.

It seems like the device that you are trying to format does not exist.



On October 17th Serge suggested that you guys should try to enable:
CONFIG_AHCI_DWC
and see if that does solve your problem.

There was never any reply to his suggestion.



Looking at the config in:
>   kernel-config: https://builds.tuxbuild.com/2I9I42JhhQqS9GOpFppfRiuqtRW/config

# CONFIG_AHCI_DWC is not set

This Kconfig is indeed not enabled.

Could you guys please try the suggestion from Serge?


Kind regards,
Niklas
