Seems like you are hitting the same issue as https://github.com/mimblewimble/grin/pull/2715#issuecomment-478907126

Agree with @kargakis:

ERROR grin_chain::txhashset::txhashset - hashset_replace fail on txhashset. err: Invalid cross-device link (os error 18)

perhaps we need 1.0.4

@TheBudda Totally unrelated - I would recommend to just run ./grin, why do you need sudo?

[TheBudda]

@hashmap I tried running./grin with sudo, without sudo & root still got the same results

@TheBudda sure, it was unrelated to this issue, it’s generally less secure

@TheBudda this issue can be solved by running TMPDIR=/normal/user/dir ./grin, just tried it now, synced in minutes on 1.03. Grin uses this dir to store and extract txhashset.

Got the same issue, I can't sync since 1.0.3, apparently because I symlinked ~/.grin to somewhere else.

Worked for me, not sure that's because I used some dir on the same partition though…
