Please note that this is more for my sake. To mount a hard drive in raspbian do the following: Make sure you have ntfs-3g installed by running:
1 |
sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g |
Then mount the drive read/write with the following command:
1 2 |
sudo mkdir /media/USBHDD sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1/ /media/USBHDD/ |
And it shout be mounted. /dev/sda1 is the location of your hard drive. Now to configuring minidlna. Location of minidlna.conf file and access command:
1 |
sudo vi /etc/minidlna.conf |
This is the file I’m running right now. As I type this i’m successfully streaming to my Kindle Fire HD (the reason why I’ve decided to really make this thing work) but I’m not sure if it’s stable. It’s also able to stream to VLC as of now.
