I think there might be a solution though because I was able to do it in Proxmox after this date of posting (late Dec) - now I'm on unraid and having this same problem.

I should just work I would think (not tried it myself so am not certain) as Ubuntu supports XFS. You mention only having one drive in your unRAID system - does that mean no parity drive? Just asking as using a data drive outside unRAID would normally invalidate parity. Yes, that's correct. I have no parity drive just a single drive. I don't have anything critical was more just using unraid as a home media server and time machine backup as it was simple to use. Thanks for the help.

Just a quick question. Want to try moving my home server needs to Ubuntu for a bit. Currently on unraid 6 with just one drive. I noticed it's XFS. If I install Ubuntu on a USB key and leave that single storage drive in will it show up and work out of the box with the Ubuntu. Or do I have to do any prep etc? Just curious because I don't have any extra drives to do a format etc. All my data is on there. Thanks
