Without the "mount_any_usbdrive.sh" in the META module, it can't treat FAT32 volumes as case sensitive filesystems and rsync runs into problems!
How can I get around this issue? Where should I add the mounting option (shortname=winnt) to?
Or, how can I downgrade it to 2.01.09? Thanks.

Not sure what you mean, but I can definitely say that I cannot mount HFS+ on the latest firmware either.

I did a quick check ...
My USB stick is mounted with options shortname=winnt on FW version 2.01.10 E.g. nothing wrong here, check your setup please. Login using ssh and type mount at the command prompt to find out the mount uoptions used.
HFS+ is another story. The kernel used in the Thecus does not know about GUID partition tables. It's simply way to old for that. If you use an Intel Mac you would choose GUID, e.g. bad luck. If you have an PPC Mac you would use an Apple Partition Map which is the only option supported by the Linux kernel.

Hi, this is what I have after typing mount in SSH. /root$ moun -sh: moun: not found /root$ mount rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) /dev/root on / type ext2 (rw) tmpfs on /var type tmpfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw,nodiratime) none on /sys type sysfs (rw) /dev/cloop0 on /usr/lib type ext2 (ro) /dev/cloop1 on /usr/share/zoneinfo type ext2 (ro) /dev/cloop2 on /opt type ext2 (ro) /dev/mtdblock3 on /app type jffs2 (rw,noatime) /dev/md0 on /raid type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime) /dev/sdg1 on /raid/usbhdd/usb3/1 type vfat (rw,nodiratime,uid=99,gid=99,fmask=0001,dmask=0000,iocharset=utf8) shortname=winnt isn't in the last line. I downloaded the META 2.5.01.tar from here www.freeside.ch/thecus/index.php?path=n2100/I tried to install it from its original tar format or the unzipped format, but both couldn't install onto the N2100. I can only see SSH and UTILS modules - previously installed - from System > Module Management. And I couldn't find the following directory as mentioned in the module site. "The three script directories are located at /raid/module/META/ and may be accessed via ssh or scp only." Am I doing anything wrong? How can I install this module? Thanks

Keep unpacking until you find a file with extension .app - That's the one you have to install

Thanks getmythe, it works now, I can install META module and get the USB drive properly mounted.
I was using an old winrar (v3.3) that could only unpacked one level, the new version v3.8 does the trick ;D
