I'm not familiar with how this happens under Mac OS. The easiest way to check would be to open a terminal session and against the prompt type: mount followed by pressing return. This should give a list of mounted partitions, similar to the following and including your external HDs showing the mount point. /dev/disk0s2 on / (local, journaled) devfs on /dev (local) fdesc on /dev (union) <volfs> on /.vol /dev/disk2 on /Volumes/Data (local, journaled) Typing: df followed by pressing return will give similar information and may be easier to understand. Close the terminal session by typing: exit followed by pressing return. Reboot the Mac and run the mount command and the df command again. The lists should be the same. > 4.

Assuming it is, they should point to the subdirectories on the external drives with a path as shown by the mount and df commands above. > 7.

If it starts after they are mounted then it probably stops before they are unmounted. It is worth checking. -- Mick Seymour ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mick Seymour's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21137 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58048 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
