Hi all,I got a 1tb hard drive and am trying to mount onto a vu+ solo.I followed the tutorial and when doing a filesystem check I get this message;
Unable to complete filesystem check.Error:Please Reboot
And when doing the initialization I get this message;
Unable to initialize harddisk.Error:Creating partition failed
At the minute the harddrive is formatted to ntfs,do I need to format it to ext3 or fat32? Or do I have other issues?

Fat32 works fine mate, if you have been using your current image for a while maybe worth updating but you dont say what you are using. Press blue twice if BH (other images i tried all simillar)then try to mount the hdd in device manager.

Using vti3.2,just selected the device manager and the box crashed every time.Removed the hard drive and can select the device manager.Now that I think about it the device manager crashed on older images with an old hard drive

Before trying to setup mountpoints in device manager, format/initialize the HDD from hard disk options in the menu, then setup mountpoints.

Sounds familiar mate, its a nice image but you probably wont like the next bit lol, reflash the image once complete remove the usb & insert your 1tb hdd then reboot to the new image & setup. You will find the hdd is mounted already and ready to use (if not device manager will do it)
I have the same setup solo & 1tb ext usb hdd & this works. reflashing the image is alot faster than reformatting the 1TB hdd.
My one complaint about the solo is it tends to lose the external usb connection now and again we can only hope this is fixed soon with driver updates but looking at the the last few i think only the newer range will be concentrated on. -
Thanks mate,will try again at the weekend,any issues and I will bore you with them again,lol

I followed Ten Below's advice and reflashed the box,but the hard drive has not mounted and vti device manager causes the box to crash.Still stuck!!!!!
