I have a slice that is formatted (by Windows) as exfat. I can mount it with
the mount.exfat-fuse command and ti seems to work fine using FUSE and
fusefs-exfat. But geom does not see it. There is no /dev/geom directory
created and "gpart show" returns:
# gpart show ada0
=> 63 1465149105 ada0 MBR (699G)
63 1985 - free - (993K)
2048 2457600 1 ntfs (1.2G)
2459648 958765056 2 ntfs (457G)
961224704 471040000 3 ebr (225G)
1432264704 32878592 4 ntfs (16G)
1465143296 5872 - free - (2.9M)
The exfat slice is "961224704 471040000 3 ebr (225G)"
In more detail, I get:
3. Name: ada0s3
Mediasize: 241172480000 (225G)
Sectorsize: 512
Stripesize: 4096
Stripeoffset: 0
Mode: r0w0e0
rawtype: 15
length: 241172480000
offset: 492147048448
type: ebr
index: 3
end: 1432264703
start: 961224704
More oddly, when I mount the FS, I need to mount ada0s5???
Any idea what the heck is going on? I'd really like to get it to automount
with gnome-mount, but hald does not even seem to see it at all. I may need
to format it differently. It shows up on Windows as a "Logical" partition,
not "Primary". I don't understand this.
Any suggestions on how to proceed?
Thanks,
