Hi.
- New gptf option to re-format the internal hard disk using the GPT scheme;
Sorry, we have kernel version 2.6.18 and ext4 was first introduced in 2.6.19 and stabilised as of 2.6.28. That's too much back-porting work!
I'm on the latest firmware and I am still getting hangs that started when I updated with a previous custom firmware.
There you go. Hangs on the latest.Which is why I asked. Can do without that problem.
Yes, it's only for the internal disk because getting that right is a bit tricky so that the Humax software is still happy with it.
For an external disk, I consider that setting it up on Windows or Linux is straightforward enough - and even if Windows chooses a GPT scheme it will work with CFW 3.10. The command line tools are there though if you wanted to do it from the Humax command line.
Could you install the debug version of the firmware and then post the output of the 'dmesg' command after you plug the disk in? That should show more information on what's going on.I have a couple of T2s running CF3.10 (build 2734) on 1.03.12, but I have been unable so far to get them to see my new 4TB Seagate USB drive (model STEB4000200). It came formatted for windows but now I have tried using GPARTED to create a 4tb GPT partition formatted ext3. Neither box sees it when I plug it in, though they are both happy with the old (noisy!) 2TB drive. Are there any specific formatting instructions or any (probably obvious) steps I an missing?
