When I use the following, in configuration.nix, I get no errors, but it does not connect.
fileSystems."/mnt/vmshare" = {
fsType = “vboxsf”;
device = “vshare”;
options = [ “rw” “nofail” ];
};
When I change the mount point to the following, I get the error shown.
fileSystems."/vmshare" = {
fsType = “vboxsf”;
device = “vshare”;
options = [ “rw” “nofail” ];
};
vmshare.mount - /vmshare

Thank you for your help. This is my first try at Nixos. I want to use it on my main desktop and need access to the files to set it up.
