[Nightly] [Orange Pi Zero] Can't mount USB storage device

[gatnyeu]

Hi there! First of all thanks for all the great work that you do here!

 

I did a fresh install of the latest nightly (5.26.170227) and I can't mount usb sotrage devices or acces their content.

The OPiZero detects the device but it doens't mount it. I can see the device by running

sudo fdisk -l

However if I try to mount it manually I get this error:

sudo mount /dev/sda /media/usb
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error

       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so.

I've tried with three devices and none of them work with the OPZero. They all work on my PC and Raspberry pi.

Solved by mounting sda1 instead of sda. Running blkid actually reports the drive as sda1 instead of sda.

 

Is there a way to enable automounting a drive when you plug it in? Thanks!

apt-cache show usbmount

apt-cache show pmount
