21 I just mounted a USB stick which has been formatted with exFAT and the files
22 and directories are executable:
23
24 # ls -la /run/media/michael/VERBATIM32G/
25 total 10672960
26 drwxrwxrwx 1 michael michael 32768 Jan 1 1970 .
27 drwxr-x---+ 3 root root 60 Apr 30 11:40 ..
28
29 I tested running a bash script by passing the full path to the terminal and it
30 works as expected.
