Nice. I have a couple of CA-10's and Capio200 (I think anyway) as well.

But, when you installed, did you use the install as Frugal, or install as Debian/Harddrive Install?

For the Linkstations, see if they have an option for nfs. If so, no extension is needed to mount them.

Hi & Thanks again,

I shall have a read through your last post but here is a quick answer to the one before:

Quote
First, how did you install it to the system? Harddrive/Debian install? Frugal? CD drive? Persistant home or opt?

I followed this guide: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/dsl-hd-install.html and then selected GRUB as a Boot Option

It asked for stuff like multiple users etc. but I am unsure about the Frugal Part. I have a second Unit that I can retrace my steps and make notes.

The last favor would be how to make the now shared USB Drive visible to my Windows Workgroup and my Xbox running Xbox Media Centre

So you have a hd-install, not a frugal install. It might change a couple of things in what I told you, but not sure. Let us know if what I said didn't work.

As for sharing to a Samba network, see:
