Hi all i have this configuration
Model    TP-LINK Archer C7
Firmware Version    OpenWrt Barrier Breaker 14.07 / LuCI Trunk (0.12+svn-r10530)
Kernel Version    3.10.49

Recomended firmware from OpenWrt wiki

I have instaled usb support from this page: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/usb.storage

I have conected USB disk
In LuCi menu / mount points I added this USB as /dev/sda1 and mount point /mnt/usb
But WinSCP client can“t seen /mnt/usb directory still.

ssh has written:
root@OpenWrt:~# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /mnt/usb failed: No such file or directory


thanx for some help.

Does /mnt/usb exist?

ls /mnt

Hi, dont exist:

root@OpenWrt:~# ls /mnt
ls: /mnt: No such file or directory

That's weird. Well, quick and dirty way is to mkdir the neccessary directories (/mnt and /mnt/usb if needed).

The discussion might have continued from here.
