Unable to format a drive in exFAT

Hi @Freeway

Thanks so much! Unfortunately, it didn't work. I got the following:

sudo apt-get install exfat-utils exfat-fuse
[sudo] password for sajib:            
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package exfat-utils is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'exfat-utils' has no installation candidate

So I tried without exfat-utils and ran this:

sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse

And that downloaded and installed exfat-utils, and I was able to format in exFAT.

Thanks a lot, again!
