  • I have done basic programming in HTML, C#, Python, and probably a few other “niche” applications that are really only borderline programming, if at all (like editing JSONs, scripting, etc.). I’ve gotten roughly to the point of making a custom calculator or other basic application, but generally get stuck (and therefore bored) once I run out of clear instructions. I’m not good at learning skills by myself (I.E., without a teacher or other guidance), but have had success learning complex software with commercially available workbooks/textbooks. I tend to do poorly without structure when learning things, hence the need for a workbook.











  • Alright, I’ve used your code, sudo mkfs.exfat -n LABEL /dev/sdb1

    but the console returns this

    exfatprogs version : 1.1.3
    open failed : /dev/sdb1, Device or resource busy
    
    exFAT format fail!
    

    what’s the problem here? I’ve cleared out all storage on the drive, and made sure that it isn’t opened in the file explorer, and it shouldn’t be reading/writing anything because it’s empty.

    thanks for the help btw
