Now I will ask a beginner question, since I picked the Mythdora default install for both these boxes my recording are stored at /storage/recordings on both drives.  Would it be best to mount the slave /recordings in the master /recordings folder or say at master /mnt/recordings.  Then would I use a symlink from master /recording to master /mnt/recordings.  Or should I just add the master /mnt/recordings as another storage group?  I don't want the masterbackend writing to the storage on the slave, just allowing Mythweb to read from it. Thanks.

Make your filesystem layout identical on all Myth hosts (including 
MythWeb hosts).  If you don't, you'll have a configuration challenge, 
and even if you do things right, some things won't work right.

Therefore if you have a directory of recordings on the master backend 
mounted at /storage/recordings , make sure the same directory (and, 
therefore, the same recordings) appear at /storage/recordings on all 
Myth hosts, if it's going to be mounted on those hosts.
