Volume bind mounts into LXC containers inherited private propagation from the host source path, which prevented mounts made inside a container (e.g. NAS mounts via postinit.sh) from propagating back to the host. Dependent services bind-mounting the same volume from the host side would never see these internal mounts. Self-bind each host volume directory and mark it rshared so that container-internal mounts propagate back to the host path. Mark dependency mounts as rslave so they receive propagated mounts but cannot propagate mounts back to the source service. Because rshared propagation means mounts can survive container teardown, add defense-in-depth to uninstall cleanup: unmount any remaining mounts under the package volume path, then refuse to delete if any persist, preventing remove_dir_all from traversing into a live NFS/NAS mount and destroying data.
StartOS
Welcome to the era of Sovereign Computing
StartOS is an open source Linux distribution optimized for running a personal server. It facilitates the discovery, installation, network configuration, service configuration, data backup, dependency management, and health monitoring of self-hosted software services.
Running StartOS
Warning
StartOS is in beta. It lacks features. It doesn't always work perfectly. Start9 servers are not plug and play. Using them properly requires some effort and patience. Please do not use StartOS or purchase a server if you are unable or unwilling to follow instructions and learn new concepts.
💰 Buy a Start9 server
This is the most convenient option. Simply buy a server from Start9 and plug it in.
👷 Build your own server
This option is easier than you might imagine, and there are 4 reasons why you might prefer it:
- You already have hardware
- You want to save on shipping costs
- You prefer not to divulge your physical address
- You just like building things
To pursue this option, follow one of our DIY guides.
