[PROBLEM] Can't mount exFAT HDD

[IriDium]

No too sure why you'd want exFAT but I guess you want compatibility between Windoze and Linux.

It's more than likely the drivers are not installed (They should be)

Try

Terminal

sudo apt-get -s install exfat-utils exfat-fuse exfat-utils

It should say something along the lines of already newest version.

Now check "dmesg" and see if the drive is recognised ditto "lsusb". If so,

Terminal

# sudo mkdir /media/Tempdir
sudo mount /dev/sdxx (Possibly sda1) -h exfat /media/Tempdir

If that works, then it's not automounting (Not too sure if that's a bug or a limitation). For now, you'll need to enter it into fstab to be able to use it, or try another FS - NTFS or EXT4
