Eden B3 internal HDD automount ?
#1
Question 
--- SOLVED ---

Hi Laugh

I'm testing Eden B3 since 2 days now, and got 2 questions :

1) How could I set my second internal drive to been automounted on boot ?

Actually, I need to log in XBMCbuntu, mount it manually, and them log to XBMC ... borring !

2) Like other poeple, the destop fonts are really too small ... near unreadable ... what could be done ? Confused

Thanks.

Solved by using psydm tool.

Solved by using Kosm tip :

In 2 words : add << Option "DPI" "96 x 96" >> to xorg.conf in the monitor Section

Now, it's time to watch movies !!! Laugh

Big thanks folks ! Nod

I don't know ... psydm probably do that (I'm far to be a linux guru Confused)

Hi guys looking for a break down on how to get this done, new to using ubuntu, I downloaded and saved the pysdm file to usb, then extracted it on xbmcbuntu on the desktop side, but how do I get it to actually install, I know windows has a .exe file, ho does linux work.

I also tried doing the apt-get install pysdm , but where exactly am I meant to enter it, tried ctrl + alt + t but I get an error message ? If you could give me a break down would really appreciate it, wish there was an option in xbmc to just auto mount

Thanks

You can use the graphical package manager to install psydm Big Grin
( just look unbuntu tutorials )

Installing it through Synaptic package manager was really easy, just search for pysdm, double click and mark it for installation, the ctrl + P when the pop up comes don't tick the download package list option, and it installs quick.

Just use fstab to mount the hdd on boot, no extra packages required.

I use the UUID method.
