NFS export external USB device fails

I am trying to NFS export a FAT32 formatted external USB device, which fails with the error:
/sbin/nfsd: Can't export /Volumes/<external>: Operation not supported (45)
I am able to export internal/HFS drives, which have the "Owners Enabled: Yes" attribute, and therefore assume I need to set the flag accordingly on my external drive.
Despite the fact that the device has been assigned a uuid (it appears to be in place in .fseventsd and running 'repair disk' echos it in syslog), I get this error when running vsdbutil:
vsdbutil: Couldn't update volume information for '/Volumes/<external>/': Invalid argument
vsdbutil: no valid volume UUID found on '/Volumes/<external>/': Invalid argument
And diskutil returns this:
Permissions are not enabled on the disk (-9973)
I attempted to add the uuid to /var/db/volinfo.database in order to set the permissions there, to no effect.
I don't believe that I am the only person who has attempted this, but I can find no evidence to the contrary. Thank you.

NFS exporting requires specific NFS serving support from the file system.
Unfortunately, the "msdos" file system implementation doesn't currently
support NFS exporting.
If you'd like that support added, I would strongly encourage filing a
bug report/enhancement request with Apple:

  • Cant mount external USB Device?

    After Os X Lion installation on MacBook Pro, external devices dont mount?

    What kind of external USB device are you having a problem with?

  • USB devices fail to mount

    After installing 10.4.6 my USB devices fail to mount. No icons on desktop.
    If I go to Apple menu/ Apple system Profiler/ more info/ USB, they show up OK with all correct information.
    If I go to applications/ utilities/ disk utility, they do not show up so I can mount them. In fact, disk utility spins forever. Removing the USB devices, disk utlity works OK.
    Another post suggested to reset-nvram, then reset-all. Things happened, but it did not help.
    These worked fine before the update.
    I have tried each device through a hub and directly to the computer. Still no good.
    The devices are a Dazzle compact flash reader and a Nikon camera.
    Any help would be appriciated.

    Have you tried plugging in the devices one at a time to see if the problem is with just one of them?
    If so, you may need to contact the manufacturer & see if they say it is compatible with 10.4.6 as is, or may need a firmware update, which hopefully they can provide.
    Note: when I Googled "Dazzle compact flash reader OS X" I got several hits suggesting at least one model with this description isn't very compatible with OS X, like this one.

  • MBP Does Not Recognize External USB Devices

    MBP does not "see" external USB devices (such as Garmin Nuvi GPS) or any thumb drive. No external USB devices show up in Finder nor does Disk Utility see them. No cable issues. Have tried restarting several times, but to no avail. This MBP used to recognize these USB devices, but no longer do so.
    I have seen this question posed several times in forum, but no suitable answer. Don't know if it is H/W or S/W problem.

    Hi Terry Temple
    Is there at least any power going to the USB ports? ( as in if for example you plug in a USB light, will it switch on? )
    If there is power in the USB ports it might be a software problem.
    Try resetting the SMC see link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411
    also try re-set the PRAM see link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    However if you do not have any power at all it probably is a hardware problem.
    Is it still under warranty?

  • [SOLVED] external USB HDD fails to install arch w/boot device ERROR

    I've been working on installing arch linux via an external USB harddrive (specifically seagate free agent go 320GB) for 1 week now, and everytime I failed - until TODAY! thankfully I found this post, where user Dieter@be references this link, which displays BUG ID#17231 at the top titled "Can't boot LiveCDs 2009.08 (/dev/archiso doesn't show up)". the bug report states ::
    I can't boot the LiveCDs 2009.08, neither netinstall nor core.
    When it tries to access /dev/archiso it shows these messages:
    :: Waiting for boot device ...
    Waiting 30 seconds for device /dev/archiso ...
    ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ...
    Falling back to interactive prompt
    You can try to fix the problem manually, logout when you are finished
    ramfs$
    reading further thru this bug report, I found a very insightful post by Heiko Baums (cyberpatrol) where he says the following, and I quote ::
    Problem found. The link /dev/archiso wasn't created.
    After
    ramfs$ cd /dev
    ramfs$ ln -s sr0 archiso
    ramfs$ exit
    it continued booting correctly.
    And sg was also loaded after this. ;-)
    as you see, the bug report was for the CD version, not the USB version - yet, my issue with the USB bootdisk was the same, (no matter which boot disk I tried = netinstall, core, .img, .iso, etc) meaning I got the EXACT same error = "ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ..." ! well, I figured that I'd try one of the new fancy ISOs found @ http://build.archlinux.org/isos/ - specifically I use/used archlinux-2010.03.04-netinstall-x86_64.iso.
    upon running Unetbootin from windows 7, and choose to install the ISO archlinux-2010.03.04-netinstall-x86_64.iso to my first partition on my USB harddrive (that first partition being FAT32, and had already been set as bootable previously), that completed successfully. I rebooted, and choose to boot from USB drive, the ISOlinux bootloader came up as normal, I choose DEFAULT and off it went.... sure enough, it errored out at the same place as listed in the bug report ::
    :: Waiting for boot device ...
    Waiting 30 seconds for device /dev/archiso ...
    ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ...
    Falling back to interactive prompt
    You can try to fix the problem manually, logout when you are finished
    ramfs$
    this time though, I issued the following 2 commands ::
    ln -s /dev/sdb1 /dev/archiso
    exit
    from there, EVERYTHING worked as it should!
    to recap: the solution for me was create a symbolic link pointing /dev/archiso => to my partition which held the archlinux netinstall (which is where I told Unetbootin to install it to)! done and done. I felt this needed to be posted here, as I could not find this solution after MANY google searches, archlinux wiki searches, forum searches, etc. honestly, I think it would be prudent to have this tidbit of information added to the Install from USB stick archwiki page as a side note to those that may run into this issue.
    this is not the FIRST time I have run into this problem with a USB install of archlinux, but this is the FIRST time I found a fix! thanks to all the great posts I reference here, without this information I dont think I would have been able to install archlinux on my new alienware m11x laptop.
    -peace-
    PS: no amount of rootdelay=XX  nor pmedia=usb  nor usbdelay=XX would work in my above attempts either.

    FAT16 here. Parted Magic sees my USB drive as sdd. I tried your way and surprise, surprise, it didn't work.
    ln -sf /dev/sdd /dev/archiso
    mount -t vfat /dev/archiso /bootmnt
    mount : Invalid argument
    I thought maybe you meant mount -f vfat /dev/archiso /bootmnt instead. I tried it too, it resulted in a kernel panic.
    What else can I try besides installing from a IDE/SATA CD drive ? Because this issue is NOT solved. At least not for me. Wonder if "archlinux-2010.04.05-netinstall-i686.iso" from the here will solve it (really hope so).

  • Mac Pro no longer mounts external usb devices

    Hi there,
    Last week my mac pro stopped mounting my ipod shuffle as a disk (i was using it like a usb memory stick), i thought it was a problem with the shuffle and left it aside. But just yesterday the mac stopped mounting my external lacie 500gb disk. I had never had any problems before this.
    I then tried both the shuffle and external hd on my powerbook g4. They work perfectly!
    I then thought it might have been a problem with the usb ports on the mac pro - although all my other usb devices were still working - so i booted into xp with bootcamp, and the devices were recognised in xp perfectly.
    After searching various threads on different forums the general idea for this problem seemed to be to reinstall osx, which i have just done, and no joy. Im still not able to mount either of these devices.
    System profiler sees the devices, but thats it.
    Also, i recently bought a new usb memory stick (as i thought the shuffle was dead), this mounts and works perfectly!
    Anyone got any ideas?!
    Thanks

    Yes, i did the combo update immediatly after reinstalling osx and before pluggin in the usb device.
    The problem developed just before the release of 10.4.9, so i dont think it was the update that did it.
    I've only just got this MP back from Apple. The PSU had to be replaced. It took them nearly 3 weeks to do

  • USB Device Failed Detection

    Hello,
    I am trying to connect a USB to SATA/IDE Adapter to a USB port on Solaris 8. In the /var/adm/messages file, two messages show the following:
    usba: /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/usb@c,3 (ohci0): getting device status failed (-1)
    usba: /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/usb@c,3 (ohci0): connecting device on port 1 failed
    It appears that the USB device is being detected but the OS doesn't know how to define it. Maybe a device driver might be needed?
    Thx

    Hello,
    I am trying to connect a USB to SATA/IDE Adapter to a

  • Various USB devices failing

    I've just received a Hexacore MacPro (2013 style), but am having problems with some USB devices.
    I can see a lot of chatter on this, but not relating to my specific problems.
    The two devices I have which are consistently failing, are a Virus Ti and a Steinberg eLicenser dongle for Cubase.
    I've tried various combinations of connecting these devices both directly and via a Belkin 4 port USB2 hub (supposedly MTT enabled).
    The cubase dongle throws various different errors, but all relating to no connection. Sometimes it works for a period, but then fails again.
    The Virus mostly doesn't work, but when it does, there's a lot of digital noise.
    Both devices work perfectly on my 2011 MacBook Pro, which has native USB2 ports.
    Other USB devices seem to be working OK.
    It seems that either there's a failing in Apple's USB drivers for USB3 on MacPro, or maybe Apple has started using a new USB chip?
    Does anyone have any thoughts on this one? I bought this specifically for music production, but am hitting a dead-end.

    Hi. Yes, I have support tickets open with both.
    I'm seeing various web pages which mention hacking the system to force old USB drivers as a fix. I'm not on my own with this issue.
    By the way, both those devices are USB1 (12mb).
    That sounds somewhat drastic though.

  • Satellite A200: Cannot use external USB devices properly

    I encountered a problem with my Toshiba notebook and i can't fix it and I am in need your help please..
    The problem is that when i connect a USB portable device (external USB harddisk , iPod ,Flash memory ..etc) with more than 8GB of Memory..
    It's not properly installed in device manager and appears under "universal serial bus controller ".
    But it doesn't say that it's an unknown device. It appears normally with its name, but it's not properly installed (it doesn't say that either ) where it is supposed to be under a specific category (harddisk under "disk drives" , camera under "imaging devices " and so on )
    And i can't use the device because the HDD doesn't appear in "My computer" and my iPod can't be used
    I'd like to inform you that this problem is with all USB devices with more than 8GB of memory.
    Not just one device. I tried many devices to make sure that it's not a problem with the device.
    So it's a problem with my laptop and i installed Windows many times with no progress.
    Thanks for your help in advance ..

    Is it XP or Vista?
    If its XP, ensure you have at least Service Pack 2.
    This hotfix may help XP see high capacity media:

    but that wouldn't really affect external USB HDD's.

  • Cannot boot from external USB device

    Hi,
    I have an iMac with a superdrive that is not working. This gives me a lot of trouble, because I want to install windows.
    Some month ago, I bought an external USB DVD drive, and hoped that it would help. But I quickly experienced that it did not, since I could not get boot camp to use it.
    Today, I was sure that I found a good solution. I ran into a site that explains how to use en external DVD to install windows on macbook air which have no internal DVD.
    http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/9136/macbook-air-install-windows-7-with-boot-camp -without-an-external-dvd-drive/
    Unfortunately this do not work - for me and my iMac.
    First I installed the rEFIt tool and this works fine. The external DVD shows up as a bootable device.
    But when I try to start the windows installer from the external DVD, the system just hangs and shows a windows logo with no color. This operation I carry out by selecting the external DVD in the eEFIt menu.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    I don't know about the link you gave, I can only pass on my experience.
    I made my bootable Windows7 X64 install disk by this method:-
    "This method is used to create a new install disk if you have your authentic Windows 7 disk. Don't sweat it; it's much easier than it looks.
    Note: you will need to do this on a PC
    In your C drive, create these two folders: c:\windows7exe c:\windows7dvd
    Go to this link http://rapidshare.com/files/297067205/oscdimg.exe and download Oscdimg.exe. Place it into c:\window7exe folder
    Insert your Windows 7 disk into your DVD drive For this example, we will refer to it as the D drive.
    You need to open a DOS prompt window. Do this by going to start/programs/accessories/command prompt
    Your default command prompt will look something like C:\Users>.
    At the prompt type cd c:\windows7exe
    Your command prompt should now look like c:\window7exe>
    At the command prompt, type in exactly (or copy and paste):
    oscdimg.exe -n -m -bd:\boot\etfsboot.com d:\ c:\windows7x64.iso
    Note: the letter d in the above command refers to your DVD drive, change it if your DVD drive is labled with a different letter.
    Press Enter. This will begin creating a new disk image. You should see a response in the DOS window that displays its progress.
    When the process is complete, you will find a new disk image of your Windows 7 disk in the folder labeled c:\windows7X64
    Now that you have a new disk image, you need to burn it onto a disk using ImgBurn. This is a free utility which you can download from here: http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download
    Place a blank DVD into your DVD RW drive.
    Launch ImgBurn and select "Write image file to disc". In the Source window, find your newly burned image in the c:\windows7X64 folder. Click on the disc icon at the bottom of the window to begin the burning process.
    Voila! You have a new Windows 7 installation disk which will install with no problems. "
    .....which is on this thread
    May not be any use to you without an internal DVD RW which works.
    In your shoes I would really want to get my internal superdrive working.
    A quick look at iFixit suggests the iMac uses a standard laptop DVD RW which are readily available, but perhaps I am missing something.

Maybe you are looking for
