- Multiple pendrives for LibraryBox - 2 Updates

Practically-speaking, could I use a portable USB 2.0 HDD instead of a USB
flash drive? My thinking is that 500GB sounds a lot nicer than 32 GB - 64
GB (cost-effective max), and I already have a 500GB drive laying around.
I tried with a 500GB USB 3.0 drive, but it didn't quite work (maybe because
of the power requirements for USB 3.0?), and the drive doesn't have an A/C
charger/power port. I have other smaller USB 2.0 drives I could try...
I'm using the TP-Link TL-MR3040 - and I tried it both powered and
battery-only (same result: the SSID OpenWrt appeared but it wouldn't hand
me an IP address).

Jay, the MR3040 has less power output then the MR3020.
The point is, that even with the same specs, some USB Stick doesn't work on
the MR3040 which work on the MR3020.
.. So power output can be one reason.
Another reason can be partitioning. It seems that not even your
installation started, when it shows you the SSID "OpenWrt" ... or you
messed something else up ? ;)
