usb harddrive recording problem

[dreambox17]

Hi
just installed blackhole image on on my new dm800 and cant get the usb harddrive to work

the problem is the image shows the drive is there under the info menu but when you try to record it says there is no drive

however if i initialize the drive from the menu the drive is the recognised and i can record, until i reboot and the problem is there again

any ideas what i am doing wrong

thanks in advance

I used the plugin enigma2-plugin-extensions-mountie_0.8_mipsel.rar

No doubt this is only mounting the drive but it works perfect.

The linux guys will know an easier way but this is an ABC and i like things easy.

Hope this helps.

Don't think you'll be able to change the recording location if you already have a hdd installed. Maybe someone with more info will know, but I doubt it (since this will require a complete redirection of the movie dir each time you want to record, and the video button on the remote won't work as required...
