Exfat is also painful to use in OpenBSD. There is something called exfatfuse but it is quite buggy.
The only way I could make USB drives that were usable on other machines was to use fat32 with mkfs.msdos.
OTOH NTFS read support is excellent on both FreeBSD and OpenBSD. But overall I admit that it is painful if you need to work with USB drives.
- jandrese 9y agoRead support is fine, write support varies from nonexistent to merely crippled. One implementation allows you to write to NTFS only in the case where you were overwriting existing bits in a file, and even that was buggy.
