Thank you JBNY,
Your method (fstab) is the only one working on my xbmc live 9.11 beta1.

I've got NFS shares now working after using this thread. One question, editing rc.local and mounting that way works for me. Is there a preferable method between using rc.local and fstab that is better? Or is either method just really doing the same thing.
Using the fstab method is it possible to set the share up so that from the xbmc machine it is only read-only?
Edit: Oh and wanted to mention this thread should prob be put into the how-to section

Thanks for these detailed instructions so far, but I cannot seem to access the mounted folder from the xbmc interface. I can only see the contents of the mounted folder in putty using "sudo ls /media/TV." When I just type ls /media/TV it gives me permission denied. I think this is what is preventing me from seeing the contents of the folder in XBMC.
Also, I tried "chmod 777 /media/TV" before mounting and it worked fine, but if I do it after it gives me the error "read ony file system" message which I guess makes sense, but I can only read it, if I do it under root privileges.
Any advice?

Not to bring this thread back, but I read that nfs is not supported in Dharma. Since I'm still having this problem, would it be crazy to assume that Eden would have support for it?

NFS is not supported as a 'direct' protocol in Dharma. You can still use autofs or mount it as a local mount.
In Eden you can add it just like you can smb with "nfs://server.local/media/Movies"
Code:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `xbmc_%`.* TO 'xbmc'@'%';
IF you have a mysql problem, find one of the 4 dozen threads already open.

thanks darkscout. Do you know if I can go straight from Dharma live to a nightly pre-eden?

I'd back up your settings folder, but the databases should update themselves just fine.
Code:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `xbmc_%`.* TO 'xbmc'@'%';
