Openelec - Can't Mount 2nd HDD

[KaMoS]

Hi Guys,

I just installed Openelec and it doesn't automatically mount my 1st Hard Drive. Here's my config:

root ~ # parted -l
Model: ATA ST2000DL003-9VT1 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 2000GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Disk Flags:

Number  Start   End     Size    Type     File system  Flags
 1      1049kB  2000GB  2000GB  primary  ntfs


Model: WDC WD20 EARS-00MVWB0 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 2000GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Disk Flags:

Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

root ~ # df -h

/dev/sdb1                 1.8T      1.5T    325.4G  83% /var/media/Hydra

I've tried:

mkdir /var/media/Viper && mount /dev/sda1 /var/media/Viper

That fails :/

Please help if you have had this problem before. Also, I read somewhere that I need to create an autostart.sh file but I can't seem to get that right either :/

dude, you are supposed to edit your samba config

[Disk 2]
path = /media/2TBDrive
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes

Wish I knew that yesterday. I set it up as a NAS and could then view the share in OpenELEC.

Just out curiosity, what is the purpose of the samba.conf file? Should I create one anyway? Coz everything seems fine now.

Anyone working on Openelec I refer to this guide - http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=127492

Was written by one of our very own forum members...

wow, this guide is REALLY good. Thanks for the link. It's weird I couldn't find much on the forum about OpenELEC when I searched.

I've attached an NTFS formatted external drive and found the write speed to be crazy slow. I read up a bit and found it to be a linux issue and that one should change the /etc/fstab with a "noatime" command. Only thing is, one can't edit fstab in Openelec. Is there another way to get the drive operating at a decent write speed?
