I am using the Asus AC66U_B1 which has a USB 2.0 port (mounted at /mnt/router) and a USB 3.0 port (mounted at /mnt/Movies). I've installed Entware-ng at /mnt/router/ along with other programs like rtorrent and aria2. If I change the downlod directory of rtorrent in its configuration file (/opt/etc/rtorrent/rtorrent.conf) to /mnt/Movies/downloads, rtorrents fails to load after rebooting the router. I will have to start it myself via putty (/opt/etc/init.d/ S85rtorrent start). Is there a reason why this is happening ?
 
Probably your usb 3.0 disk is mounted later than entware starts.
Add at the end of /jffs/scripts/post-mount
Code:
sleep 10
/opt/etc/init.d/S85rtorrent restart
