Bthub4 shared usb drive

Post#1 by sjp » 09 Jul 2015, 19:10

Hi, I am new to porteus (today),

I have a BThub4 (Home hub). It has a single usb port and I have connected my 500GB HDD..

It stores my movies and common files.

In windows 7, you just search your Network spaces and then "map" the drive, something like

..................\\Bthub4\usb1

Then a drive number like "Z" is assigned and everything is pretty much straight forward.

Can anyone talk me through the process of getting my HP-530 with Porteus on it to recognise the contents of that shared drive?

Thanks in advance

Simon
