bluestarshield,

Alright, I’ve used your code, sudo mkfs.exfat -n LABEL /dev/sdb1

but the console returns this


<span style="color:#323232;">exfatprogs version : 1.1.3
</span><span style="color:#323232;">open failed : /dev/sdb1, Device or resource busy
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">exFAT format fail!
</span>

what’s the problem here? I’ve cleared out all storage on the drive, and made sure that it isn’t opened in the file explorer, and it shouldn’t be reading/writing anything because it’s empty.

thanks for the help btw
