Adding usb hard drive

I searched and couldn't find the topic elsewhere so please redirect me if need be.

I have installed Amahi on my old Sony desktop and am accessing it via my laptop which is running vista 64. I would like to add a couple of USB drives to my hda. I've read the wiki article on the subject but fear I can't do the install using my laptop. Right now my hda is running without a monitor or keyboard. Do I need to hook up a monitor and keyboard to do the steps in the wiki article and install the drives?

Thanks in advance for the help. Joe

in short: no you don't need keyboard & monitor.
you can administer the hda over SSH or VNC, whichever you prefer.

you probably mean this page on adding a second hard drive?

i think everything in that page can be done being remotely connected via ssh. use

Code: Select all

wget http://wiki.amahi.org/images/c/c6/Diskmounter.sh
to get the script when connected remotely via ssh.
