It consists of a [FUSE][2] module (fuse-exfat) and a set of utilities (exfat-utils). - -Supported operating systems: - -* GNU/Linux -* Mac OS X 10.5 or later -* FreeBSD - -Most GNU/Linux distributions already have fuse-exfat and exfat-utils in their repositories, so you can just install and use them. The next chapter describes how to compile them from source. - -Compiling ---------- - -To build this project on GNU/Linux you need to install the following packages: - -* [pkg-config][7] -* fuse-devel (or libfuse-dev) -* [gcc][8] -* [make][9] - -On Mac OS X: - -* pkg-config -* [OSXFUSE][10] -* [Xcode][11] (legacy versions include autotools but their versions are too old) - -On OpenBSD: - - -Get the source code, change directory and compile: - - ./configure - make - -Then install driver and utilities (from root): - - make install - -You can remove them using this command (from root): - - make uninstall - -Mounting --------- - -Modern GNU/Linux distributions (with [util-linux][12] 2.18 or later) will mount exFAT volumes automatically. Anyway, you can mount manually (from root): - - mount.exfat-fuse /dev/spec /mnt/exfat - -where /dev/spec is the [device file][13], /mnt/exfat is a mountpoint. - -Feedback --------- - -If you have any questions, issues, suggestions, bug reports, etc. please create an [issue][3].
