Hi
This is a difficult one for me being my first dreambox but I'm hoping some of you might help.
I use the Dream Elite Blackhole 1.3 image but I'm having a lot of problems formating a sata drive in a esata dockingstation.
The box recongnizes the drive then into Devices Manager > Moutpoints I select /media/hdd.Save and reboot.
On restart and back into Devices manager I get Hard Disk: S**500418AS, Size:500.107 GB, Mount:/media/hdd, Dvice:/dev/sda1
After that in menu > setup > system I select Harddisk and press Initialization. A new menu shows up showing ATA(S**500418AS)- Internal(500.107 GB). Press OK and a new screen with Model:S**500418AS, Capacity:500.107 GB and Bus: Internal.
Press red button Initialize and it asks me if I really want to initialize blah blah and I choose yes. It starts formating the drive but after 40 secs I get Unable to initialize harddisk. Error:Mount failed.
Go back to Devices Manager and all my previous settings are gone.
What am I missing here ?? Please advise.
In some other forum someone says you need to create and mount a file where you want your recordings to be stored namely /movies before Initialization and aparently it worked but I haven't got the faintest idea how to do so.
Cheers
