New Around Here
So I have installed acl via entware (opkg install acl) and have access to getfacl and setfacl however any attempt to use setfacl on USB connected drives results in "Operation not supported". setfacl on a test file in /tmp works fine.

Firmware is 384.4 stable.
USB drives are formatted as ext3.
I have an init-start script in /jffs/scripts with the following contents:
Code:
#!/bin/sh

# Build fstab manually
mkdir -p /tmp/mnt/flash
mkdir -p /tmp/mnt/hdd
echo "LABEL=flash /tmp/mnt/flash ext3 rw,noatime,acl 0 0" > /etc/fstab
echo "LABEL=hdd /tmp/mnt/hdd ext3 rw,noatime,acl 0 0" >> /etc/fstab

As far as I can tell those fstab lines are being respected as doing "mount" on it's own shows the noatime rather than relatime options as enabled... but no acl.

What am I missing here?

Nothing?

Can someone at least confirm for me that ACLs should work with the above mentioned router/firmware/filesystem combo?

Asus uses their own access control system for the USB drives (look at the hidden files on the drive root directory and you'll see files they use). I don't believe standard ACL will work.
 
Doesn't ACL require a filesystem supporting it, such as XFS?
