mount dm7025 on dm600

[father]

Hi,

Does any one know how to mount an dm7025 on an dm600?
The biggest problem is that dm600 already has an internal harddrive so I cant mount it as harddrive.

I have a Dm500S and I moun t it to my DM600 which has internal drive. Have a look at my attchment and post in this thread.

DM500 recording to shared folder not recognized...

But if I do so then the hard drive in dm 7025 takes over and the one in dm 600 disappears.
I need to mount it under another directory but I can?t make it work. Do I need to telnet something?

I am not quite sure I understand what you are trying to with your mounts. I mount my Dm500 to my Dm600 internal drive so that I can record programs from my Dm500S satellite box onto the hdd of the DM600C. I now find that I can use my Dm600C hdd as I have always used it and it makes no difference to the Dm600C that a Dm500S is mounted to it but what I find very useful is that I can watch the recorded program from either the Dm500S or the Dm600C but the bonus is that whatever I record from the Dm600 can be viewed on the DM500.

yeh, that should be possible, if you have a samba server installed on your 7025 run a CIFS server, and then either write a script and stick in box boot up or start the mount manually and just mount to another folder in /mnt or /media... (cant remember which a 600 uses )
you can only have 1 record point tho i am sure,, so dont really know what else you might hope to accomplish anything from this

mkdir /media/cifs
mount -t cifs -o user=dream,password=dream //192.168.0.24/sharename /hdd

On my dm7025 I have LT image (The fifth Campaign) and I record TV shows. On my dm600 I have Gemini 440 image installed and I record TV Shows. The thing I?m hoping to accomplish is I want to be able to see the shows I have recorded on my dm7025 on my dm600 and vice versa.
How do I make that happen?

I get the feeling that on the DM7025 the hdd takes priority over the network drive so you are unable to send the recordiong to anything other than to the hdd. I am not sure about the LT image but I use the Pli image on my boxes and the first share is always called media/hdd and the next one is called mediaia /server1, media/server2 etc. you may want to try something similar oln your boxes.

i had a couple of beers so
when ive had my 600 with no hdd mounted to see my 7025 with hdd for recording,ive noticed the 600 recording file wont play on the 7025 box
because it might not recognise the file 100% because the recording format from enigma1 image to the enigma 2 image
or vice versa
i will double check later pmsl

Satman I have tried your post but without success
root@dm600pvr:~> mkdir /media/cifs
mkdir: Cannot create directory `/media/cifs': File exists
root@dm600pvr:~> mount -t cifs -o user=root,password=dreambox //192.168.0.XXX/media/hdd /media/dm7025
mount: Mounting //192.168.0.XXX/media/hdd on /media/dm7025 failed: No such device or address
root@dm600pvr:~>

Any ideas?
