Can you tell us how to do this.

I've tried searching but can't find a definitive answer on mounting windows shares. I have a Windows Home Server that's running LMS and it works really well. I'd like to use the photo viewer screen saver but can't work out how to link it to the WHS share that has all my photos. I know that LMS has s...

Oh well. At least it boots from a stick (famous last words).

Now which OS to use.

Just checked and it isn't there.

I think I've attached what you need.

This is what I'm using: sudo rm -r /backup/* cd /backup sudo wget http://files.exotica.org.uk/?file=joggler/files/mmcblk0.img.gz sudo gzip -d mmcblk0.img.gz sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0* sudo dd if=/backup/mmcblk0.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M And I still get 'umount: /dev/mmcblk0*: not found' after 'sudo u...

sudo gzip -d .... the -c option puts the output to stdout John That stopped the random characters but I'm still getting the same errors ate the next stage: sudo umount mmcblk0* gives umount: /dev/mmcblk0*: not found and sudo dd if=/backup/mmcblk0.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M gives dd: writing `/dev/mm...

When i type in 'sudo gzip -cd mmcblk0.img.gz ' I get screens and screens of random text for about 15 minutes and the the work Putty repeated (I'm using Putty) and everything seems to stop and I don't get a prompt.

Is this right?

Ok I've tried again and definately no luck. When I enter 'sudo umount mmcblk0*' I get 'umount: mmcblk0.img.gz: not mounted' and when I enter 'gzip -cd mmcblk0.img.gz | sudo dd of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M' I get: dd: writing `/dev/mmcblk0': No space left on device 0+7504 records in 0+7503 records out 25332...

I managed to use the on screen keyboard and some cut and past.

It seemed to not through up any errors but the Joggler still just boots to the o2 logo so maybe I missed something so I'll try again.

Unfortunately I don't have a USB hub so can't connect a keyboard

Found the IP address

I think you only need half the screws.

Did the same thing but luckily the power jacket was plug in

Showing my Linux noobiness now.

Do I have to enable Telnet on the Mint Joggler and how do I find the IP address.?

Repair or repurpose?

Managed to squint through the fuzz and before it get's to the reflash section there are some MMC errors.

It seemed to work but won't boot. It went through things but the screen is distorted so the screen is difficult to read. It says that it should take 5-7 minutes to flash but takes about 10 seconds and says finished so I assume something is going wrong. Sorry should have said I was trying Roobarb's ...

I then wrote this via dd command.

Any step by step instructions for this?

It's a couple of years old but presumably this would still work.

One of my Joggers just died.

Was running PNP III and became unresponsive and then wouldn't reboot.

Tried to re flash with the Open peak reflasher and got the attached error.
Is there any hope?

I was just going to post something similar.

I have all my photos stored on my Windows Home Server on a share and would like to use the photo screen saver to show them.

Has anyone done this and are there any simple instructions to do it?
