Any ideas on how I can extend the recordings directory disk space
used by MythTv temporarily?
I wish to add an extra hard disk to my server, just for Christmas,
to record extra programs.
What I would like to do is simply add an extra directory to the
"Directory to hold recordings" setup option, like:
/data/video:/extra/video
Any other ideas, remember this is temporary I don't what to
mess around with raid or any other more major schemes ?

Would a symlink work Install the the new disk, move existing recordings onto it. Make /data/video a symlink to the appropriate dir on your new disk. When it's all over just change te symlink back to a real dir and move your recordings back.


That nice 'n' easy and should work, shouldn't it?

Regards,
Phill _______________________________________________
