    Now I try to mount the usb1 to my other box. After some investigation this should be the way to do it. (USB-stick inserted in the box)
    mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/media/recordfile /DATA/usb1/sda1 -o user=root,pass=xxxxx

    Unfortunally it doesn´t work
    I get the error
    "mount error 5 = Input/output error
    Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)"

    What do I do wrong?

    As I remember I have used this before with AB_enigma image. To record & watch you should stick an usb flash on Azbox and put these lines at the end of /MMP/usr/bin/S.sh:

    sleep 10
    mount -t nfs ip-ipbox:/mnt/part1/movie /DATA/movie
    mount -t nfs ip-ipbox:/mnt/part1/movie /DATA/usb1/sda1

    Don't forget to mkdir /DATA/usb1/sda1/movie

    I find the process of establishing a NFS mount really slow. It takes maybe one minute to do the mount, but once its done it works very well.

    If I put the mount command into the startup or plugins, it stops the startup of the box for the duration of the command execution, which slows the boot procedure a lot.

    Anyone else have the same problem?
