Code:

man dpkg

^-- works for almost all programs.

However, no need to use them because in the xbian packages, purge and remove work the same.

So I still use the following?

Code:

mkdir /media/usb/downloads
mkdir /media/usb/incomplete
cp -R /home/xbian/downloads/* /media/usb/downloads/
cp -R /home/xbian/incomplete/* /media/usb/incomplete/
rm -r /home/xbian/downloads
rm -r /home/xbian/incomplete
ln -s /media/usb/downloads /home/xbian/downloads
ln -s /media/usb/incomplete /home/xbian/incomplete

If I move Dl and incomplete transmission dirs to another location through settings file, destination dirs must be xbian:xbian,777, right?

[CurlyMo]

I just tested writing to usb, no problem . What i did was:

Code:

mv /home/xbian/downloads /media/usb/
mv /home/xbian/incomplete /media/usb/
mv /home/xbian/torrents /media/usb/
ln -s /media/usb/downloads /home/xbian/downloads
ln -s /media/usb/incomplete /home/xbian/incomplete
ln -s /media/usb/torrents /home/xbian/torrents

[kraleksandr]

You said that symbolic link is better than another dir in settings.json?

[CurlyMo]

Yes, don't change these settings.

Already downloading for an hour now to my usb drive.

Sounds great!
Not so much luck on my side yet... After reinstalling all packages, the webgui of transmission, nzbget and couchpotato are starting, but the webgui of sickbeard and headphones are not.

When trying the long command of sickbeard, no errors show. Any ideas?

[CurlyMo]

No, i just installed the latest versions of the packages like in the FP, and moved the folders to my usb drive. Still working, even after a reboot.

ok. maybe i messed something up then. i will do a complete new install tomorrow. thanks. when installing again, are the packages removed first? or is this still a manual process. if so, what was the command again to remove a package?

[kraleksandr]

UPnP port mapping in transmission works or I need to do this manually?

Looks like it works, but it disabled o_O

@harmenzon, please try to figure out thing more by yourself. I already said you can look up the manual of (the dpkg) command(s) by:

Code:

man dpkg

[kraleksandr]

Clean install, wget && dpkg -i transmission, mv && ln.
"Unable to save..." again

[CurlyMo]

I'm currently testing with nzbget, will test later with transmission.

[kraleksandr]

If u need, I can give u ssh access.

[CurlyMo]

I will first test things locally.

Both transmission and nzbget work:
