I have heard the term "mount" the drive, though I do not know what that means. I can open the simpledrive (USB external HHD), navigate through it, and play FLAC files that are stored on the drive. the file path name is /media/SimpleDrive. Within that, I have all my music in a folder named "music". All I have tried is what was suggested in another post, that is, navigate to the folder, copy and past the file path in my slim server settings under home/server settings/basic settings in music folder. So what I have tried is pasting /media/SimpleDrive/music. Also, booted up in XP, SS couldn't find the SB because of all the messing around I was doing last night. No big deal, go to set up, a couple of steps later and I am connected. I just can't figure out what I need to do differently for Ubuntu SS to find the SB. Thanks for all the help. Guess I better find out what all these command lines are for :). 'course with Ubuntu I just rarely need them. -- mgh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mgh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10308 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35254 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
