<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div>My backend died a week ago and I have been trying to get a new one up and running. I think I have everything working only I can't write to the storage directory.<br><br></div>I am using mythbuntu 12.04 from a clean install.<br>
<br></div>The problem is I can't figure out how to get my storage partition to mount at boot time with the proper permissions. If I set it so it's user:group are mythtv:mythtv are set in fstab booting hangs and asks if you want to skip or fix the problem.<br>
<br></div>I have spent the better part of half a day on this (I know this is bad) googling and rebooting (good thing I'm using ssd) without success. <br><br>Unfortunately since I was having so much trouble I tried using <br>
a gui program "<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Palatino,'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:21px;text-align:justify;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);display:inline!important;float:none">Storage Device Manager</span>" which I think is called PySDM. This worked but it set the partition to some weird user and group names that I can't recall now ( I am at work). Now, for the life of my, I can't figure out how to prevent the drive from mount with this user:group. The following are the pertinent lines for my fstab file. Now, I can't even boot my system because I deleted my fstab file and rebooted thinking that it would get replaced with a default one. I can really screw thins up!<br>
<br>/dev/sdb1 /var/lib/mythtv/Recordings1 xfs users,user 0 0 <br>/dev/sdb2 /var/lib/mythtv/Recordings2 xfs users,user 0 0 <br>/dev/sdc1 /var/lib/mythtv/Videos1 xfs users,user 0 0 <br>
/dev/sdc2 /var/lib/mythtv/Recordings3 xfs users,user 0 0 <br><br></div>Could this be related to the fact that these folders directly mount partitions? I don't see how this entry assigns the user:group I previously mentioned.<br>
<br></div>So, how do you mount a partition at boot with a non-root user:group ownership? Sorry for the wordy email and if it isn't completely understandable but I am getting desperate.<br><div><div><div><div><div><div>
