I installed freespire to the HDD and ran into a problem: my library is
on an external HDD that uses NTFS.  The default permissions in
freespire allow only the root login to access NTFS partitions.  I had
to change the options by adding umask=0000 to the line that mounts the
drive in /etc/fstab.  here:

/dev/scsi/host4/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /mnt/music_library      ntfs    
comment=jiffymount,noatime,nodiratime,user,exec,dev,suid,noauto,user,umask=0000 0
0

Now all users can see the music files on the drive.

Next step is to get slimserver to load whenever freespire boots.
