Hi,

Just installed the latest black hole beta 2.1.4 0.2 image and now it will not map the hard disc drive.

The image see the hard disc drive but will not map it so it can be used.

I have tried to reinstall the new image, reformat the hard disc drive and initialise but without any joy.

The image is seen as a WD elements 1042, device /dev/sda1

Thanks in advance.

Have you been into Menu, Setup, System, Hard drive and used the initialization, and file checker, options?

Hopefully it has been noted as a bug and can be sorted in the next beta version.

Thanks.

telnet into the box
mount /dev/sda1 /media/hdd

(from memory - which CAN be faulty)

openpli merge with vu is well known and not a BH issue

Yes VU apparently using antiquated code/build code is causing PLi loads of problems
really not looking good at the moment

try this
start telnet
type

blkid

look for


UUID=178aea89-060f-435c-bc9c-1370d198cd3f

your number after UUID= will be different

ftp to /etc/fstab
edit the fstab like below making sure you use the numbers you found in telnet


UUID=178aea89-060f-435c-bc9c-1370d198cd3f /media/hdd auto defaults 0 0

save and exit

reboot
================================= ======================
or

ftp to /etc/fstab

put this in


/dev/sda1 /media/hdd auto defaults 0 0

save and exit

reboot
