Hi,

Just wondering if kong's latest supports ext4 USB NAS partition.

I have all the USB support radios checking in Services/USB.

Device info is as follows...

--- /dev/sda1
Block device, size 57.84 GiB (62108205056 bytes)
Ext4 file system
Volume name "SanDisk64GB"
UUID 0A18E94D-F8B4-4DD6-B53E-0832E5558FAB (DCE, v4)
Last mounted at "/run/media/xxxxx/SanDisk64GB"
Volume size 57.84 GiB (62108205056 bytes, 15163136 blocks of 4 KiB)
/dev/sda1 mounted to /tmp/mnt/sda1

In Service/NAS, Samba support is allowed with Samba Server and WORKGROUP.

Files Sharing mount path is /mnt/sda1, Name:SanDisk64GB, with public access, read & write.

Unfortunately, I'm not seeing the drive in Debian, Nautilus file browser.

Any ideas are appreciated, as I'm new to NAS.

Thanks,
MP

Im still on Kongs build 31870 and ext4 works fine, not sure about latest build but dont see why it could be removed.

How did you format the drive?

[i]EDIT:

Actually, it looks like it mounted just fine!

In Nautilus, what I had to do is to manually connect to the router USB, with command smb://192.168.1.1.

I was hoping to have the drive show in the Nautilus file manager panel, where I could just click on it like a normal folder such as Documents, Downloads, etc.

It looks like I'll have to comb the Debian/Linux forums. Perhaps it's a limitation of using Nautilus, or there is a OS setting which I have to adjust.


Thanks for your reply.[/i]

The drive was formatted msdos & ext4 on Debian Linux. Having trouble finding it as a drive on Debian.

Samba is enabled and running via systemctl.

I'm definitely a newbie with router NAS sharing. :D
