Hi Erik,
I have a raspberry pi working as a basic fileserver. I used this tutorial
found at:
http://www.cio.com/article/2901051/create-a-home-server-with-raspberry-pi-2.
html
With regard to a fstab file, here's an entry from mine that may help you:
UUID="5CC00824C00806CC" /media/audiobooks ntfs-3g
uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=007 0 0
With reference to my smb.conf file, here's an entry that may help you:
[audiobooks]
path = /media/audiobooks
read only = No
browsable = Yes
writeable = Yes
valid users = pi
The only thing I found that was not mentioned in the tutorial is to grant
the appropriate user permission to use the folder. A command like this
should work:
Sudo chown pi:pi /media/audiobooks
I hope this will help.
Thanks.

Hi again,
here's an update on my hard drive mounting situation. I took my best guess
and put the arguments below into my FStab. well, the server didn't blow up
but it doesn't mount the hard drives either. so I am stuck once again.
I mounted all of the hard drives manually. then I started working on my
Samba server but I haven't been able to get a Samba share to work either
even with the hard drives mounted. not my day on the Raspberry Pi front.
Best,
Erik

Alright, I found the flags that I think relate to this problem but I'mactually works.
not sure how to apply them to my particular fstab file.
Here is a sample line copied out of my FStab:
UUID= 066f0ebb66180ada /mnt/d1 ntfs-3g UID=1000,gid=1000,umask=007 0 0
The new flag should be something like:
Defaults,nofail,x-systemd.device-timeout=10
Unfortunately the lines in my FS tab do not look anything like the
lines that they are using in the sample documentation I have so I'm
not sure where to put these commands in the line to get the proper
syntax. what do you think?
I don't see that it makes much difference in this case but I'm using
an Arch Linux tutorial which can be found here:
Https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fstab
I'm using the documentation and Sample code found under the tips and
tricks heading level 2 and the external devices heading level 3.b est,
Erik

Yes, that sounds about right. I was just wondering if it would help
bring the hard drives basically on line before you tried to mount
them. I'm not an expert here. It's just a thought. Let me know if this

is this what you meant?
Hi Rill,
I think I found the podcast you were talking about on hacker radio.
the podcast describes a situation where /boot/CMDline.txt had been
edited by a special script for purpose of making the Raspberry Pi
boot from a operating system on a SSD hard drive. The script added
the special delay of 5 Seconds command to give the hard drive time
to spin up before trying to boot from the operating system on the drive.
hard drives?
I don't want the system to delay booting but I wonder if I could use
the same type of command in FS tab to make it the system wait for the
a workaround for it.
Best,
Erik

In my experience, Eric, the problem simply may be the size of the
drives you were trying to mount. I'm guessing they are large based
on what you're using them for. Essentially, the pie can't mount
them fast enough and therefore they don't get mounted at all. There is

work if I run them myself. I used the tutorial found here:
Hello all, I have had this raspberry pi for three years and
always intended to set it up as a nas/personal cloud. This week,
I have finally gotten around to it. I'm using raspbian via
command line. This meets my needs and in particular it
potentially lets me remote administrate. I have a good two pages
of notes. Many appropriate packages are installed and updates
performed. My drives are all accessible, but I have run into an
issue. In order to make my drives mount automatically at startup,
I need to edit the fstab file. I have done this successfully, but
my drives don't mount automatically, even though all of the commands

tell me where I went wrong? I could paste it into an email message.
