    External disk problem

    Hi,

    i have problem with USB disk access. I bought new WD My book mirror edition and connected to router. I was able to read files only. Then I formated disk as Ext3 and now it's impossible to see disk in settings (Status & Log / USB). FTP/Samba doesn't work as well. When I connect disk to pc there is no problem with access or read/write operations. I tried also Ext2 with the same result. The router uses original firmware 2.0.0.6. Where could be problem?

    EXT2 and FAT32 is the only supported file system for original firmware (on wich you can write).

    I run olges fw and have no problems with a mybook 1TB disk (formatted in EXT3).
    so it might be a firmware limitation here.
