There's an odd issue with the NTFS-3G software with OpenWRT. It works great most of the time. But sometimes it slows down. Along with that is some unusual CPU usage by the NTFS.MOUNT process. | There's an odd issue with the NTFS-3G software with OpenWRT. It works great most of the time. But sometimes it slows down.

=== Restart the NTFS.Mount Process === | ===Restart the NTFS.Mount Process=== | ||
...nope, not with the service command. The process can be killed off. But it produces a really, really odd error. It unmounts the drive, but SAMBA continues to allow writing to it. | ...nope, not with the service command. The process can be killed off. But it produces a really, really odd error.

=== Unmount and Remount it === | |||
Example; | |||
* umount -l /mnt/sda2 | |||
* mount -t ntfs -o noatime,nls=utf8,big_writes /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2 | |||
Nope, that doesn't seem to work either. | |||
=== Remove and Insert a Kernel Module === | |||
* lsmod | |||
* No NTFS-3G, oh wait, it uses FUSE, so: rmmod fuse | |||
Nope, that doesn't work, even though there are no dependecies. OK, how about modprobe -rf? Nope, only a neutered version of modprobe is availalbe with the -q switch. So modprobe -q fuse. Nope nothing, none of that works. | |||
=== Restart Router === | |||
Yup, the good 'ole fashion Windows solution works every time. | |||
