[VU+ Duo] Can't mount USB (or EXT SATA) HDD

[marty]

Using VIX 3.0 I can't mount a USB (or EXT SATA) HDD
I have tried 4 different drives, both USB and EXT SATA and I just get a crash
All drives are formatted in NTFS (needed for PC use too) and all drives worked perfect on VIX 2.4.

Here is a crashlog from just now.

Any ideas?

I did a search and found this LINK

I followed the instructions.


Rebooted the DUO and still get the crash

I forgot to say the crash happens when I press MOUNT MANAGER then it says scanning for devices then it crashes.

First of all upgrade to the latest build and for USB NTFS you'll need to install the NTFS-utils.

I'm on the latest 'stable' build
Without sounding really thick where would I find NTFS-utils? :thumbsup:

update to the latest build first either by using the software update option in the image ( enable unstable updates first ) or by a telnet session with the following command init 4 && opkg update && opkg upgrade && init 6


Then install the NFS client software on the box.

menu > setup> system> network> NFS setup

NFS and NTFS isn't the same thing

I got it sorted in the end.
I had rebooted my DUO and still got the same problem but then I went into deep standby and the turned off the DUO with the button for a few secs then it was fine after it booted up.

So to recap using "opkg install ntfs-3g" works but in my case I had to power down rather than reboot :thumbsup:
