Help Please -- M1 Mac Mini: EXT4 mounted once and then endless repair loop.
I seamlessly mounted and unmounted my external 2TB Linux ext4 drive *once* using Paragon extfs extension (which i purchased just to be able to mount my linux disk).
Now Paragon sees the drive, automatically and says it is repairing it... but hangs forever. Is this a Big Sur/ARM issue? Could it be that the drive unmounted uncleanly somehow?
The drive mounts perfectly on Linux machines. So I don't think it's an issue with the drive per se.
Drive has external power source and is USB.
Was nun?
