Post subject:  how wo mount USB HD with Movie files

I have a gx150 with 384meg of ram running R5A30.2 just fine.

The systems sees my external USB drive during bootup. How do I mount it and point myth to it for viewing video files?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Charles

Search for the keywords "usb drive", You should find a recent thread about this with manual examples and scripts. The only extra thing you need is a symlink under /myth/videos to the mounted directory and a scan to find the files.

Like tjc pointed out that post will get you going with the basics.

A little "gotcha" that slowed me down was when autofs mounted the drive the ls command shows /mnt/usb as empty. But I can cd into /mnt/usb/sda1 and see USB drive contens. The symlink command works fine.
