Hi, i have moved from Raspbmc to OSMC Alpha 4 and now my 2TB External Drive isn’t mounting.

Its a 2TB exFAT formatted, i see it when i type fdisk -l

osmc@osmc:~$ fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 1.8 TiB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x25931207

Device     Boot Start        End    Sectors  Size Id Type
/dev/sda1           2 3907029167 3907029166  1.8T  7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT

but it’s not mounted when i turn the RaspberryPi on.

it worked fine on Raspbmc.

what should i do to make it work?

Thanks.

I found the solution, all i had to do is:

sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils

and then reboot and everything is working great!
