Solved !

I did almost what you did Ciscoh:
- fresh install: small HHD with system only, first 2TB hdd mounted as /var/hda/files/
- finished installing fedora
- installed amahi
- added second 2TB hdd as per the tutorial in the wiki

Works like a charm !

Thank you

Hi ! Fresh install of Fedora 14 and Amahi 6. From my Mac, I move some files to my shares. The folders stay there but the big files disappear after a few seconds. Small files (.srt files and Thumbs.db stay there). For what it's worth, files are copied from a user named macmini, who is not an admin. 1...

Sorry for the delay in my reply.

Problem solved, using Guillaume's command, thanks

Anyway, I had several issues and completely re-install the system from scratch.

Have another one now from greyhole ... but will open a new thread

So Ciscoh, you don't have a /var/hda/files/ mount point, just .../drives/sdb[thru f]?

Ok. Just to be sure as I am completely new to Linux. 1/ I unplug my 2 HDDs I want to use for files, and I keep only my system disk. 2/ I install Fedora 14 as per the tutorial except the part on partitions: I do no create the /var/hda/files/ mount -> my whole disk is split between swap, boot, root an...

Thanks a bunch. What if I don't want to use the system disk for storing files, can I install Amahi without specifying the /var/hda/files/ directory?

Great news! I would suggest two things in the installation part: 1/ screenshots without LVM, and with the same structure as with LVM (swap, /, /home partitions) as it is confusing not to see the same structure. Maybe it is on purpose, then explain why. 2/ screenshots with different options: 1 HDD, 2...

Hi there, As a total newbie to Linux, I am trying to setup an Amahi system (Fedora 14 and Amahi 6) and learn a little bit about the OS at the same time. I am following the very good tutorial for newbies, and the screenshots drive me smoothly through the Fedora 14 install. However, when it comes to t...

Hi there, Completely new to Linux and right in the middle of the steep learning curve :oops: I freshly installed Fedora 14 + Amahi 6: 1 small disk for the system, and two 2TB disks for the files. However, Greyhole server is now stopped. I digged in the forum but nothing worked. Following the Greyhol...
