Hard Drive Mounting
Hey guys!
i've just set up my pi with xbian and its working great. BUT, I have one small issue. When I power up the Pi the hard drive mounts to usb0, if I reboot it mounts to usb1 and then my library does not work. It chops and changes each time I reboot or remove the usb cable. I found this guide: http://jmeosbn.github.com/blog/baking-the-pi/#fn:mountpoints But I dont think it has worked and now im a bit stuck. Can anyone help? Having the same issue? Im running XBian 1.0 Alpha 5 on a 256mb Pi. Thanks Guys.... |

Can you try removing all mountpoints except usb0 from /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf

RE: Hard Drive Mounting
This is the file I'm talking about: https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/blob/xbian-beta1/etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf
Here you see this line (line 12 and 13) Code: MOUNTPOINTS="/media/usb0 /media/usb1 /media/usb2 /media/usb3 Change that to Code: MOUNTPOINTS="/media/usb0" Please read rules and do a search before you post! . FAQs . How to post log file? . Looking for answers? Please start here |

Seems to have a life of its own in deciding where to go! |

RE: Hard Drive Mounting
If your hard drive is connected, can you post the output of:
Code: sudo mount pilight - modular domotica solution
