Roy, I looked at it last night, and it looks great. Since you're doing this, may I suggest you add a note to indicate you can do the same thing using a USB flash drive? I've been doing this for a while for a bedroom Freevo box, and it works well.
In my case, in /etc/vfstab I mount /dev/sda1 (root volume) with the noatime option to speed things up and minimize writes to the volume. I also have /var/log as a tmpfs (ram-based filesystem) so logging is present, but not written to the volume. Thanks for taking the time to do this, and I hope this helps! /Mike -----Original Message----- From: Roy Wood <roy.w...@gmail.com> Sent: February 27, 2009 19:58 To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net; sty...@iinet.net.au Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] Controlling where Freevo writes data?
