What does this do again?
Hello there,
A while ago I made myself a EXT2 to Serial/USB board, with FW v1.4 and ARTaylors "Userfiles" to kick the infterface into life, it worked and the the USB drive was mounted as EXT in the menus (as the mount.gpe tells it to).
Since I've updated to FW2 the drive is no longer mounted as EXT once I've turned on the "USB Host" and then the "Storage" options.
If I telnet into the 2x and issue "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/ext" (took me a while to work that out Being a windows man!), restart the menu and volia, one USB hard drive all ready for use.
Does anyone with a BoB use a USB HD that gets automatically mounted?
I've looked though the BoB user manual that was posted, which seems to say it will appear under the EXT once you've turned it on but I'd like it confirmed (or someone could tell me why it doesn't happen with mine )
I don't mind all that much having to issue a command to get the HDD to show up, I'm just wondering what's different between the offical BoB and the one I've built.
Thanks
