    Hi,

    Just tried mounting my 4TB GPT/ext4 disk, but found out I couldn’t. I had a look on the solid-run website and they mention that this is a kernel compilation option. Is it available in geexbox latest?

    Thanks again!

    We enabled this a long time ago and it was reported to work with the 3.5.7 kernel. However, there might be a regression. OTOH, I see the option is present in our current kernel config…

    Thanks for checking it out, Rudi. I found out since then that I had a problem mounting drives via esata, so I now mount them using USB (I’m guessing this is something to do with the auto-mounting or cubox esata issues?). I’ve mounted my 2TB drive successfully via USB, so I’ll try the 4TB drive later today and report on how I go.

    Thanks again for your help. Geexbox is fantastic! :)
