I have set up an install of Slitaz5 32-bit on an Intel Atom Samsung netbook.
When I attach a USB pendrive, it automounts and I can read/write the files on it.
However, when I attach an external SSD via USB, it doesn't automount (it automount with my other distros)- how can it be mounted? Will automounting work better with 64-bit Slitaz?
Also, when I attach the external drive, that is either a 1TB SSD (ext4/msdos format) or a 4TB HDD (ntfs/GPT format) via the USB 2.0 port, neither gparted nor the command '$ blkid' show that they are attached. They are not recognised at all by Slitaz5 32-bit, but they are recognised by other Linux distros (I only used 64-bit distros). Could it be an issue of 32-bit vs. 64-bit ? However, as I said above, a USB stick (fat32 format), containing personal data files, is recognised.
This presents a problem because I need 'blkid' to show me the UUID identifier and mount point, so that I can make an entry in the fstab file, so that the external drive automounts when it's attached.
Any help is much appreciated - merci d'avance
When I run '$ dmesg' in terminal I get this output:

I just went to check if 32-bit vs. 64-bit made a difference with opening large external drives - a question I asked myself in the second post of this thread.
With a bit of experimentation, I've just discovered that 1TB and 4TB external drives automount on either 32-bit or 64-bit antiX19, even though they are not recognized on the Slitaz5 32-bit that I'm using.
It seems the problem is the interface between the external drive and the laptop. The Inatek caddy (Model FE2010) I've been using, doesn't work with either a 1TB SSD or 750G HDD.
So, I took the drives out of this caddy and then used an older one (sorry, I don't know the make). It worked - both drives were recognized and I could read/write files to them.
However, this doesn't help for the "Seagate 4TB USB 3.0 Portable 2.5 inch External Hard Drive", which I bought from Amazon. Obviously, I'm unable to replace the in-built interface. Is there a way of solving this?
Maybe the problem with some USB interfaces is due to the older Kernel that Slitaz5 uses (3,16), as I don't have this problem with other distros (Manjaro, Ubuntu, Debian-based distros) on old hard hardware, where I routinely use Kernel 4.4.
What do you think ?
Install usbutils.
Run the command lsusb in a terminal without the external drive connected.
Connect the external drive and run lsusb again.
The new line with the drive connected has the external drives hardware interface info.
Grep the unique idVendor:idProduct against the kernels modules.alias file to determine if the kernel is compiled with a matching driver.
Replace the colon : with dot.glob* in the pattern search
[c]grep -i XXXX.*XXXX /lib/modules/3.16.55-slitaz/modules.alias[/c]
If you get a match use the driver name followed by .ko.xz with tazpkg search-pkgname <drivername.ko.xz> to search for the kernel driver package that owns the driver and install the package.
If you don't get a match do a google search with 'XXXX:XXXX lkddb'
lkddb stands for linux kernel driver database which provides driver module name, kernel configuration,and the kernel versions that offer the driver.
The search result at https://cateee.net provides this information.
Provide the XXXX:XXXX in your reply, if the current kernel 3.16.55 offers the configuration it will be added and the 32/64 bit kernel rebuilt.
