[QUOTE="Gausie, post: 344848, member: 248312"] NFS is natively unix/linux. Windows doesnt support it. You need to publish an NFS share from your Linksys - I dont know how to do that, but perhaps the Linksys forums will help. Test that it's published by running 'exportfs' on the Linksys - and dont forget to create a 'movies' subdirectory before you start using the PVR features on the dreambox. The following describes how to connect the Dreambox to an NFS share (I'm slowly writing a user guide - so excuse the assumption that the user knows nothing) [B]Connecting an NFS drive as an HDD [/B] Use a telnet application to connect to the Dreambox from a PC Click start->run and enter CMD, in the window that pops up type 'Telnet 192.168.XXX.XXX' to connect (your dreambox IP) Login using your user name and password Type 'vi /etc/init.d/bootup' Use the arrow keys to scroll down until you see the line '# network mounts should be done here' - it will be close to 'echo 80 > /proc/progress' Press the I key to insert text enter the line: 'mount -t nfs -o wsize=4096,rsize=4096,nolock 192.168.yyy.yyy:/shared /hdd' (your NFS server IP & share) press the esc key to stop inserting text enter ':w' to save enter ':q' to quit vi enter 'Exit' to close the telnet session enter 'Exit' to close the command window [/QUOTE]
