PNPIII - trying to get NAS mounted for LMS - SUCCESS!!

[Error]

well now i'm thinking of trying another NAS, maybe swapping the discs.. But not sure if it works..?

[Error]

well i DO have a reaction of putty:

Code: Select all

login as: joggler
joggler@192.168.0.12's password:
# mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13\\Muziek /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
[1] + Stopped                    mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13\Muziek /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
#

off for some running now.. Will try OffbeatDaves code as well

[castalla]

Eh?!

Did you do

ls /media/TEST

[Error]

No, I forgot. But when I set the Joggler up tonight to go and do ls /media/TEST it got stuck at the O2 logo at the starting screen.
I don't know why the hell that is. The thing seems to have a will of its own.. It definately seems to dislike frequent powerups...
I just reflashed it again to be completely clean, and Telnet is now busy telnetting PNPIII on it.

On the NAS I changed the name of the folder from Muziek to Music. I should off course nog make any difference but hey, you never know...

[castalla]

Just remember to change the mount command to the new folder Music!

You have to do the commands again, since a mount is not permanent.

mount: mounting //192.168.0.13\Music on /media/TEST failed: No such file or directory
# ls /media/TEST
ls: /media/TEST: No such file or directory
# mkdir /media/TEST
# /bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13\\Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler

It doesn't make any difference.
Also, mounting the network share via PNPIII webpage just results in "turning-wheel" again..

I still don't get why UPnP can play media from my NAS. Why is that then? Why does that see the NAS and why cant LMS?

[castalla]

The last example you give - does it just get stuck? No hash prompt?

[castalla]

Try also:

/bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13\Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler

and

/bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler

[Error]

The command prompt just doesn't come back. Even after half an hour.

[Error]

Try also:

/bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13\Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler

and

/bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler

well at least this 2 options do return my prompt

Code: Select all

login as: joggler
joggler@192.168.0.12's password:
# /bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13\Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
mount: mounting //192.168.0.13Music on /media/TEST failed
# /bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
mount: mounting //192.168.0.13/Music on /media/TEST failed: No such device or address

I really think we've exhausted all the possibilities.

There's evidently an incompatabilty between the the busybox mount and the Seagate - we know it works with the standard linux mount, and upnp, so it probably is down to busybox.

Maybe Offbeatdave has a suggestion - did you try his exact code (given earlier)?

[castalla]

Can you do

lsmod

at the prompt

and report the output?

[castalla]

As a very long shot - can you try:

/bin/busybox.new mount -t ext3 //192.168.0.13/Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler

and

/bin/busybox.new mount -t nfs //192.168.0.13/Music /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler

Not seen a report back yet.

yes I did report back, with your code I didn't get my prompt back but there was also no error code.

yesterday I pulled the plug on the joggler, put out back in today and again it got stock@ o2 logo... is the flash memory erased when certain amount of time without power??

[castalla]

Some Jogglers seem more prone to locking up.

Can you give us the lsmod output?

Please try the ext3 code .... ???

Sorry, I must have missed it/can't see it. Can you copy and paste the output from the relevant post above.

Edit. Ahha. Seen it. The lack of # suggests it's attempting to work and is almost the correct format of the command. Try without the ro command and see what happens.

I've given up on this NAS. Maybe in the near future I will try another NAS but for the time being I use an usb stick..
thanks for all the input and help Castalla and Dave!!

[castalla]

Thanks for the update!

[Error]

the least I could do after all the hulp I got...

Yesterday I bought a 32gb USB stick and I am now copying all my Music to it..

When I put two sticks in the hub, then how do I see the second one? Not via /mnt right?

I also tried an usb case with a 2,5" SATA harddisk in it but I couldn't get it seen.. strange as the disk uses 5v?
