Hey all,
In my Library i have 2 external large USB drives, one was always allocated as S:\ and one was alway T:\
These are linux drives in windows and using Ext2 Volume manager i can mount them and write to them even thought they are ext3 volumes.
I've had no problems until lately where S: becomes T: and vice versa and obviously trashes my library items pointing to these locations.
I can change them back via Ext2 Volume Manager but on a second reboot they ping back to the wrong way around to my annoyance. (Funny thing is they are set in the registry to use the correct drive letters, I can only assume that drive27 and drive28 as they are known under volumes are switching due to being USB)
I have many other drives and have run out of drive letters and use directories to mount drives now but thats another story, many of which are ext3 without issue.
Is there Any way or an easy way to modify my library without re-scanning it all in as like i say these 2 drives hold a lot of media and one also has TV as well as movies.
I want everything relating to S: to be changed to T: and vice versa; I just dread the task.
Just thought i'd ask before i perform the laborious task of doing it via the standard method.
Yours Hopefully and beggingly <-new word?
