Ok Ive reinstalled R6 On a new 750GB Drive (I had a corupt data on my 500GB IDE).

The install went well, I scr...D up the radio times xmltv but am using EIT instead. This brings me to my first point.

The very usefull help message Alt+H tells you how to start and stop the backend. I always used to struggle fining the keys to do this. The Problem is it says Alt+1 stops the back end where its Alt + 2 actually stops it. I stumbled accross it the same way i used to (trying every key combo).


As I said I did a new intstall on a sata drive, I wanted to mount the old drive and copy the 400gb of recordings to the new drive. So i just reconected it I thought I would use webmin to mount the drive. But I cant find WEBMIN well it was always in etc webmin but there is no etc webmin.

I have done this before when I did an upgrade but I can't remember how to mount it using fstab. Any suggestions would be nice (WEBMIN) would be nice as I can do almost everything I need from there.

You could mount it from the cmd line as root

mount /dev/sd? /mnt

dmesg will output the relevant information about which drive is which.

Haven't got to installing it yet as I don't have internets still

You can install Webmin from the Service Menu (Service Menu --> LinHES Config --> Software (?))

LinHES does not use the traditional init to start and stop services as Knoppmyth did. LinHES uses runit. So to start a service: You can see what services are available with To see what services are currently configured to run . To add a service to run at boot To stop a service from running at boot

Good info in this post. I started a "R5.5/R6.x Differences Table and Equivalent Commands" page on the wiki capturing this and other info. Check it out and please contribute.
