Problem mounting hdd usb

[alrivas]

I have installed BH 2.1.5 in SoloSE. When I connect my USB HDD, it is shown in the Device Manager, but it's not mounted. I select mount in /media/hdd, save and reboot, but the hdd isn't mounted. I have checked the file etc/fstab, and the line is included. If I try to mount manually it runs, and if i mount fstab devices with mount -a, it also runs, but i have to do it every time i reboot the stb. Any idea?

Best regards.

It's bug in 2.1.5 (the same problem in the Black Hole Vu + Duo2).

Same problem in 2.1.7... no way to mount external HDD

 

[alrivas]

Anyone has been able to mount the hdd with a Vu+? After testing a lot of images, i think BH is the best, but this bug makes it useless.

workaround :-

press menu > setup > system > Recording paths >

change Default movie location to "/autofs/sda1/movie/" without quotes and make sure its pointing to ur drive sda1 / sda2 / etc.

change Timeshift location to "/autofs/sda1" without quotes to ur drive sda1 / sda2 / etc.

then come out of the menus and press recorded movies button to view recordings,

also note if the bookmark isn't set to "/autofs/sda1/movie"

press the recorded movies button again > menu > switch to filelist, then goto <list os storage devices> > internal flash > autofs > sda1 ur drive sda1 / sda2 / etc and highlight movie folder on the drive and press blue to add bookmark, then press menu > switch to bookmarks and then select the bookmark you just created.

thanks it, works for me

or add this :-

if [ -e /dev/sda1 ] ; then
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/hdd
fi

below this :-

# hook to execute scripts always before enigma2 start
if [ -x /usr/bin/enigma2_pre_start.sh ]; then
/usr/bin/enigma2_pre_start.sh
fi

in /usr/bin/enigma2.sh

then sda1 will be mounted to /mnt/hdd, and will be seen as the hdd.

Does anyone know if the Blackhole developers team is going to come with a new version of Blackhole to combat all the issues with external and internal hard drives not mounting properly? It's been over 4 months since any new version of Blackhole was released and the problems still persist. Really hope there's a significant update to Blackhole (Or OpenBlachole) soon as these problems make using the Blackhole image untenable.
