Hey guys,
just set up XBMC Live on my HTPC(+AEON Skin 0.9, Stark), which includes a 500gb S-ATA HD with 3 Partitions:

1. XBMC #1 Bootable
   
2. XBMC #2
   
3. My Media Storage (ext4)
   

Now, I want to populate my Library and add Video Files - When I go to "Movies", it says "Your library is empty" which is fair enough because I haven't added anything yet. The next step is to go to "Files" which leads me to a menu which shows me my connected external USB-HD as well as the "Add Source" button.

When I go for the latter I go "Browse" leading me to to a list of possible locations:

• HDHOMERUN Devices
  
• REPLAYTV Devices
  
• UPNP Devices
  
• WINDOWS NETWORK Devices
  
• HOME FOLDER
  
• SAP STREAMS
  
• VIDEO PLAYLISTS
  
• ZEROCONF BROWSER
  

Now, the question is: where and how can I access my media files on Partition #3? I know about the 'HOME FOLDER' (/home/xbmc/), but I would prefer to have a dedicated Partition for my Media stuff without cluttering my Home Folder. The issue here is that I cannot navigate to this partition! I believe it's sda2, where could I enter this path and access the folders+contents on it?

Any solution?

I appreciate your help guys, thanks in advance!

As I recall XBMCLive doesn't mount internal hard disks by default, but it's relatively simple to change this. Try searching the XBMC Live forum and/or wiki.xbmc.org.

Alternatively, you could try mounting the drive manually. There is help doing that in the Ubuntu forums.

The instructions are a little terse, but at least they contain keywords you can search for to find more info.

Isn't creating a simple symbolic link in $HOME is answer to your question? That works pretty good for me. Cheers!!
