Howdy!
New to HTPC and XBMC. Bought some hardware this weekend and built my first one today. For the most part its up and running with 2 USB drives connected. One with TV shows, One with Movies.
I just have a few issues to iron out.....well that and connecting up my Harmony 650 remote. But that looks like another beast altogether.
This is to concentrate on a couple issues:
Issue 1:
The default shares. Why was "TV Shows" set with a space/2words? Most know Linux doesn't play well with spaces. Can this be renamed?
Issue 2:
I'm having a hell of a time with NFS in general.
Installed nfs common and the nfs server.
Created /home/urlryn/exports/TVShows and /home/urlryn/exports/Movies
ran: mount --bind /media/drive1/Movies /home/urlryn/exports/Movies
ran: mount --bind /media/drive2/TV /home/urlryn/exports/TVShows
Edit /etc/exports to include
/home/urlryn/export/Movies *(rw,async,no_subtree_check,insecure,nohide)
/home/urlryn/export/TVShows *(rw,async,no_subtree_check,insecure,nohide)
Edit /etc/fstab to include
/media/drive1/Movies /home/urlryn/export/Movies none bind 0 0
/media/drive2/TV /home/urlryn/export/TVShows none bind 0 0
Mounts executed with no errors.
Unable to browse/map from Windows machine (nfs client is installed) to the xmbc box. Though I have a feeling this maybe due to the default shares? Especially Movies. But why doesn't TVShows ever appear in networking?
Rebooting XBMC server resulted in mounting errors where ya press S to skip or M for manual for both entries
Decided instead of creating new shares...just use the ones already there. Hence that lead up to the TV Show Share question above.
ran: mount --bind /media/drive1/Movies /home/urlryn/Movies
ran: mount --bind /media/drive2/TV "/home/urlryn/TV Shows"
Edit /etc/exports to include
/home/urlryn/Movies *(rw,async,no_subtree_check,insecure,nohide)
"/home/urlryn/TV Shows" *(rw,async,no_subtree_check,insecure,nohide)
Edit /etc/fstab to include
/media/drive1/Movies /home/urlryn/Movies none bind 0 0
/media/drive2/TV "/home/urlryn/TV Shows" none bind 0 0
Mount executes with no problems.
I'm able to browse and see my files under Movies and TV Shows....until reboot
then again i get the same errors as before for both entries....
How can i get the bind to stay persistent after a reboot?
Thanks
