Subject: [pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup] api: config: allow creation of removable datastore at `/`
Date: Tue,  2 Sep 2025 06:51:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250902045156.5599-1-h.laimer@proxmox.com> (raw)

Not allowing `/` only really makes sense for normal datastores,
because this `/` does not refer to the root of the system, but to the
root of the fs on the device.
