OLPC kernels do *not* support NTFS (# CONFIG_NTFS_FS is not set).
It either should be activated in future builds or use another FS.
I believe tha FAT32 (VFAT) can handle big drives and is universal.
However it has a number of other problems that may not suit your needs

NTFS is supported in OLPC builds, just not by the OS Kernel itself.
The ntfs-3g filesystem in userspace package can be used to mount NTFS
drives. So you should be able to use a command like mount -t ntfs-3g
/dev/ntfs_partition /mnt/mountpoint if Sugar or GNOME do not automatically
mount the
Indeed...but this is not an option as the XS=XO+TB needs to auto-boot
after daily power failures in the developing world :)

Hi,
Development on 13.2.0 is going well, we are completing all of the
things we planned to work on. We have defined a schedule:
May 23 - packages and activities frozen, first signed release
candidate published, only fixes to significant regressions taken
beyond this point.
June 13 - final 13.2.0
Thanks!

I can reproduce the problem by formatting a USB stick to NTFS and trying
to boot with it plugged in.
