Post subject:  Need to mount a drive or a partition?

Webmin is the easiest place to mount a partition the GUI makes it so easy.
If you haven't used Webmin before you will need to install it. http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=webminhowto
and make sure you follow the step about changing the password for Webmin.
In a web browser put in httpS://(mythTV's local IP address):10000 for example mine is https://192.168.0.103:10000 that will open Webmin in your browser.
In the left hand column click on hardware, partitions on local disks, then the drive you want to mount. select the partition you want, that will bring up a screen with some info and a way to format the partition but what you want is the last item "mount partition on". In that text box type where you would like the second drive mounted for example I wanted mine to be mounted as /myth2.
Wasn't that easy!! You didn't even have to open a terminal!! (unless you had to install Webmin earlier) Webmin is a useful tool poke around a little.
If I missed something let me know I don't often write How To's because normally I'm the one reading them.
