Sharing a BtrFS drive?
-
Have myself an Onion Omega2+; and I've got a 4-terabyte hard-drive, formatted to BTRFS, which connects via USB. I want to access this drive with a laptop in another room. Reformatting isn't really an option.
If the drive were ext4, that would be easy; I could just follow the directions at https://wiki.onion.io/Tutorials/Using-USB-Storage to mount it, and https://wiki.onion.io/Tutorials/Sharing-with-Samba to share it.
What do I have to do to teach my Omega to talk to this hard-drive? Is there a compatible opkg package like the kmod-fs-btrfs one at https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/storage, do I need to compile a custom kernel, or what?
Thank you in advance for your help.

@Daniel-Boese AFAIK there is no btrfs-module compiled for the official firmware, but obviously the easiest way of checking that would be to try and install one -- if you get an error, then there ain't one. I don't run official firmware, so I don't know what they got in their repos. Now, if there ain't one in the repos, you'll have to ask Onion-devs to compile it for you.
