Amahi Forums

Hello. I am as new as new can get when it comes to ubuntu and amahi. I just assembled my new server and installed 4 500 gig sata drives and 1 terabyte drive. When I installed ubuntu it put the drives at / , /sata1 ,/sata2 , /sata3 , /sata4. I put sata 1-4 in the drive pool and started copying data over.

Once my first usb drive was empty I formated it and followed the guide to mount it at /var/hda/drives/drive1.

My question is this something that needs corrected. If so how do I correct it? Do I need to reinstall ubuntu and amahi?

It is best when you install Ubuntu that the drives are disconnected. The only drive you want to be recognized in the OS drive. Then once Ubuntu and Amahi is installed, connect the other drives.

Follow the wiki article for adding them to Amahi.

I have read how to connect the drives with data fomed in a amahi setup bwfore... will it change anything since they were mounted wrong when. I put the data on? I have about 3 tb transfered on already and hope I dont have to transfer it back off.

Thank you for your quick response above

Should be fine. How the drive is mounted will not affect the data. If you are using Greyhole, best to check out that wiki guidance as well.

Thanks man. You are awesome. This will be my 5 th time installing ubuntu and amahi on this machine... each time I found something else I did wrong. This last gime it was working and I was loving it...

Dlna was streaming I had pcs automatically backing up... just awesome... a few quirks I ned to wrap my head around... vpn...rythymbox... making security cameras and amahi play nice... but it has been fun so far. And each time I find a problem I find something else new I canmak ed it do.

Thank you again
