Error making EXT3 filesystem on the USB device
Like every 6 monthes, I wanted to back up a share on an external drive and followed my usual procedure: plug a USB drive on my NVX, format the drive (EXT3) and launch the job. Surprisingly, the NVX...
So you're saying formatting a USB disk works on a 64-bit device (Ultra) but not a 32-bit device (NVX)?
I don't have a NVX, but I'm informed that this is a known issue and will be fixed in the next firmware release.
In the meantime if you have SSH access you can do
and it will fix the issue.
Not sure if the fix is in the current 4.2.25 beta (not all changes are documented in release notes) but you could try it if you like: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=70385
