Cloud ibox...............vix image...........how to map the hard drive

[GavinP]

I can map the hard drive correctly manually but when power cycling it loses it and keeps defaulting to the usb stick...........is there anyway of editing something so that it stays the same when i reboot the box.

Thanks

its like for example the usb is

usb/media/blah
hdd/media/blah

i map the hard drive timeshifting and recording to the harddrive and then when i reboot its mapped the recording back to the usb stick and comes up sith the message disk full.

Thanks

Take the stick out and first map the HDD and reboot check recording works.

Format the stick pop it back in and map the usb reboot and see if recording still works.

You will need to use and edit the fstab

All these commands need to be entered via telnet.

If you have a internal drive you will need to unmount it first.

umount /media/hdd

Now to mount the drive apply this command

mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /media/hdd

Now youll need to add these lines in the fastab file at /etc/fstab.

If this line is present erase it.

/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /media/hdd auto defaults 0 0

Make a note of it incase you need to go back.

Now add this line and save it

/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /media/hdd auto defaults 0 0

Hope it works for you.

Just copy paste those command into telnet and ftp in to edit the fstab.

Ive never had the issue your having so you could try another image to see if you have the same issue.
