Unable to Mount System

[Ragavendran 007]

i'm on latest open beta 7(8.1) on my oneplus 5. i just unlocked the bootloader and flashed the bluespark twrp then i tried to change the system partition file system as f2fs. it showing done but on next line it showing an error as failed to mount '/system'(no such device). i tried official twrp also and facing the same error. it changed to f2fs but after booting it was again changed to ext4(checked with diskinfo)

then i can't able to mount the system also

Please help to solve this error and to change the file system as f2fs.

You have to format data and then change system partition to ext4 and now you can flash the rom again.

I formatted the data . Then only I tried to change the file system as f2fs. .. I want to change the filesystem as f2fs

Ext4 is better than f2fs and also you have to first format again and then clean flash is required.

F2fs has better writing speed. Then I may help to install the apps faster.. right?

While faster, you may find yourself with compatibility issues in regard to your preferred ROM, etc.

Sticking with ext4 (for now) is simply the better option at the moment because it ensures that your reliability and compatibility. Also, there are apparently some issues with f2fs when it comes to device encryption.

Therefore: just wait. Maybe in the future f2fs will be the better option. As for now: I don't think that with an OP5 you need to worry about the installation time of apps taking too long.
