View Full Version : Why my USB doesn't show in the Mount manager tool?
Hello,
when I plug my USB key, I see in var log messages:

but for some reason it doesn't show in Mount manager and therefore I can't configure is mounting config etc...
Is there a way to troubleshoot the issue or can I just modify the fstab or is there another config file to do so?
Many thanks

(using the latest openvix release)
In general, is there a single config file that OpenVIX uses?
where we can check config like mout pts etc.. because I am not sure when you delete it from the interface, it really puts everything back to normal.
Thanks

Could it be about this sdb unknown partition comment? But what is strange is that the key works OK.
thanks
I have had similar issue on my ultimo i.e. cant see usb to mount. Reformatting the usb stick on your PC to fat32 makes it visible or it did in my cases. Have you seen my post as other issue too.

Just read your thread but for timeshifting you can't have a FAT32 USB key.
So I am trying to solve the issue and stay in ext4.
I may just tweak the fstab myself but I was scared that other settings are store somewhere and that could conflict.

FYI I have added a line manually in the fstab:

I hope this will not interfere with Openvix Mount manager "config file".

The Quad has an old kernel that doesn't support Ext4; so Ext3 should be used instead.

You 100% sure on that?
My 160GB internal and 1.5TB eSATA both are Ext4

Yes, that's 100% sure.
Yes, that's 100% sure.
Then I'm confused :confused::D mine clearly shows Ext4 :confused:
I may be wrong but i believe the older kernel can not properly tell the difference and thats why it's showing it as a ext4 partition, as i said though i'm likely wrong.

I guess that explains it then :D
I just formated a USB key to Ext3 and the Quad says it is Ext4.
I suppose things will be alot better in general once Gigablue are able to update the kernel :thumbsup:
i have been told that ext4 has issues on quad, may work but not guaranteed,
Yes my 3To HW is ext4 and works great

the USB also works it just that is not being displayed and therefore configure from Mount manager
