gargoyle 1.5.8 and exfat?

Post by zeroedout »

I recently reformatted my external hard drive from ntfs to exFAT to help with streaming and performance but now my router(TL-WR1043N) won't let me mount it properly and only gives me the option to reformat again. I know it worked before while in ntfs but now :/

Am I missing something? or does it just not work? Still learning a bit, first router flash so any help is appreciated haha

See that page

ExFAT is Windows only currently

Won't see any linux support for a while probably

I.e. it won't work on any router for a while as well

You need to use NTFS or EXT2/EXT3/EXT4
