What's new

Labeled device, now lost bash commands, MiniDlna...

mkvf

New Around Here
I labeled my external HDD, so it would be in the same place every time the router rebooted (it was sometimes mounting in sdb1 rather than sda1, screwing up my minidlna server)

Code:
 tune2fs -L AsusHDD /dev/sda1

I've rebooted the router, and the drive is mounted as AsusHDD. I've updated the media server via the router web ui to share (for example) /AsusHDD/TV Series, rather than /sda1/TV Series. Samba sharing seems to have updated automatically to point to the right place.

But, minidlna is not scanning the folder. When I try to use nano to open and check minidlna.conf, it says "nano:not found". The same seems to happen with other commands.

What am I missing?
 
You might need to reinstall Entware/Optware since the location has changed.
 
Thanks. That's helped a bit. I installed entware again, and then installed nano with opkg. It now works as expected. I guess I need now to reinstall everything else.

If you've used the setup script, look for an entware.bak (or something similarly named) directory on your USB disk, and swap it with the new entware directory.
