L0stf00l 0 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 After messing up a hard drive I spent a long time trying to reinstall the OS. It seems that there is a hidden file on the hard drive that must be manually deleted before you can reinstall an OS to it or you get this error. Use rm /mnt/"*"/.prop Where are the "*" is should be the name of the mounted device. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
