I think I may have found my answer in /etc/udev/rules.d/61-automount.rules
. It doesn't supply a filesystem-specific options line for the ext2
filesystem; it only does so for vfat
, exfat
, ext3
, ntfs
, and ext4
. This seems like a massive oversight.
The kernel don't has support to ext2 file system
The kernel don't has support to ext2 file system
The older kernels did. Why was support for it removed?
Because is an old file system. What problem has ext3/4?
But this is very easy of activate.
I have exactly the same problem. After updating to 1.7.9.6 "ROGUE" firmware the external microsd card reader is basically useless...and I wasted several hours trying to format (fat32,ntfs,ext4) and switching microsd cards wondering wtf is wrong. Would be great to get the auto-mount feature back again. The network connection via USB is broken,too. Can't get any connection on Windows10 only on LINUX.
fixed in the new release

Thank you đź‘Ť
Still not working for me :( My microSD 16GB was formatted (exfat) with Windows 10. When I insert the microSD in external slot nothing happens. Auto mount feature still not working for me. microSD is working perfectly because I can mount the sdcard manually via terminal. Thats working fine but complicated.
Error log says: kern.info kernel: mmc1:new high speed SDHC card at address... kern.info kernel: mmcbblk1: unknown partition table
Okay, I tried it with a fresh formatted microSD with fat32. Auto mount doesn't work either :( Have to mount it manually
May be useful. I started with a fresh install from sd_image.bin. Since then auto mount is dead...
try to format the external microsd with the scripts format of the console, this work fine.
Once I converted my microsd from ext2 to ext3, and relabeled that volume name from my old preferred name (“RG350-Games”) to “microsd”, then it automounted just fine.
It just sucked that I had to figure all of this out the hard way, as my ext2-formatted microsd always worked fine before. Folks shouldn’t have to reformat their microsd and recopy hundreds of gigs of content back to it just to be able to keep using the same thing that was working fine in a previous kernel.
Thank you for issuing the point update to add back the ext2 support!

If all work fine now, please, close the issue.

not quite. if you format the card with fat32 script auto-mount doesn't work. microSD has to be formatted with the RG-350 script (exfat) then it indeed runs perfectly. To all people you can't format microSD card with Windows (fat32 or exfat)! It has to be formatted with scripts provided by RG350 1.7.9.6 ROGUE Firmware. Otherwise microSD card will not auto-mount!
@Ninoh-FOX You definitely should mention this in README because otherwise inexperienced users spend like several hours to figure this out.
Big shout out to @c0d3h4x0r for bringing light into this matter đź‘Ť
Fat32 work fine too now, I am reupload the files (see the date)

That makes zero sense. The format should be the same no matter which OS or tool was used to perform the format.
I recently updated from Firmware 1.6 to the 1.7.9.6 "ROGUE" firmware as linked to by the official RGHandhelds web site.
After doing so, my ext2-formatted external microsd card no longer gets automounted to
/media/sdcard
like it did under Firmware 1.6. And there appears to be nofstab
entry for it on the read-only system volume that would cause it to automount, either -- and because the volume containing/etc/fstab
is read only, I can't add one!To mount the external sdcard, I have to physically connect the RG350 to my PC using the USB-C cable, ssh into it, and then run
mount /dev/disk/by-label/sdcard /media/sdcard
to get it to mount, which is extremely non-ideal.Why doesn't the external microsd automatically get mounted anymore? Obviously the ext2 filesystem is still supported, because it mounts just fine manually.
