seems to be working. I

You may want to try a line similar to mine at the end.
I'm not sure about UUID entries and I notice that it appears there, but
try to mount it in a /media/music directory anyway. Create the

This is a red herring. Linux has been able to read NTFS for a while

I found the web interface as you said and the squeezebox is opening up
the slimserver correctly, or almost. I know I can copy my music into
the home directory and make it accessible to Linux. What I would prefer
to do because my music directory is big, is to access the windows folder

Wow, you and I have almost exactly the same thing - music on a My

I'm learning so much stuff about Linux so rapidly I'm starting to
forget things, but I remember having exactly the same problem. I can't
