mikedpitt420 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I have a mythbuntu 14.04 KVM running. It's ISO file is loaded from an outside of the array partition /dev/sdj . It is shared as a samba share "mythtv". I can browse to it through the network through my ubuntu KVM file manager. What I am wondering is: what do the lines during KVM creation "unRAID Share" and "unRAID mount tag" mean? I would like for my mythbuntu to be able to mount the share and have it visible inside of the VM for the purposes of storing recordings. I had the lines "unRAID Share" set to /mnt/disks/mythtv (my mythtv share outside of the array" and the "unRAID tag" set to both recordings and /mnt/recordings, hoping I would see the unraid share mounted within my VM already. What are the significance of these lines and is it possible to do what I want to do and mount an unRAID (outside the array) share inside of a KVM? EDIT: I have the "unRAID Share" set to: /mnt/disks/mythtv/recordings and the "unRAID mount tag" set to: shares I have added the line: shares /mnt 9p trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L,noauto,nobootwait,rw 0 0 to /etc/fstab inside of the VM. I then try to sudo mount -a, and sudo mount /mnt and there is still nothing inside of my /mnt folder What am I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment
Woodpusherghd Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I have the "unRAID Share" set to: /mnt/disks/mythtv/recordings and the "unRAID mount tag" set to: shares I have added the line: shares /mnt 9p trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L,noauto,nobootwait,rw 0 0 You neeed to add the share name after the mount point (/mnt) and also try adding the parameter _netdev to mount the share on boot. Try shares /mnt/shares 9p trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L,_netdev,noauto,nobootwait,rw 0 0 Also I don't have the noauto and no boot wait parameters, so you may want to try booting without them. 1 Quote Link to comment
