Using Network Storage - alastairtech/rivendell GitHub Wiki

Assuming you've already created an NFS share on your storage server. There are only a few steps you need to do on your Raspberry Pi.

Step One We need to edit the Pi's file system table. Open up a terminal and run the following command.

sudo nano /etc/fstab

At the bottom of this file, we need to put in a line that tells the Pi that its /var/snd/ folder is actually your storage NFS share folder. Copy and paste in the line below.

your_server's_IP_address:your_NFS_share /var/snd nfs rw,hard,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14 0 0

Once you've put in the line, save the changes using the key combination CTRL+O and to exit using CTRL+X.

Step Two Open up a terminal and run the following command.

sudo mount -a

If you get no errors it means everything worked fine. Now restart your Pi. This will make sure the Rivendell configuration is refreshed.

Extra Step If Needed If you encounter errors when importing audio to your library, you may need to change the permission of the /var/snd folder using the following command in a terminal.

sudo chmod 775 /var/snd
