I am trying to add another HDD to one of my HDRs. Previously I have previously used EaseUS to format in Ext3. The main reason being that the native Humax firmware recognises and shows the usage etc as a pie chart. In addition the Humax shows the partition name (Films, Comedy, Drama etc.) when using move /copy on the media button and the blue button when navigating media. This makes life much easier.
I am having problems with EaseUS while trying to format a 2 tb external drive. This may be an issue with the drive itself as it keeps stopping at 84%. However, it formats to FAT32 and NTFS ok. What I would really like to be able to do is to to format and rename external partitions via the Humax. I have access to telnet, but would need very clear instruction if CLI is the solution, as I have no previous knowledge
Could formatting and renaming external portions be build into webif please? I suggest a simple safeguard of only being available if a single external drive is plugged in. This would prevent possible blunders with populated disks.
Also, could webif show the ext3 partition name (where present) in place of Drive 1, Drive 2 etc?
In the mean time any help or advice would be appreciated.
