I have recently re-purposed my old desktop PC as a 'server' running
Ubuntu LTS 12.04. I want to use the machine as my primary squeezebox
server in place of my HTPC MacMini (to reduce the strain on the
MacMini). I managed to install squeezebox server without to much
difficulty and added Music folder of my 'Home' folder to the library -
all good and it worked fine.

I then realised that the disk was almost completely full and decided to
install a second drive in the machine and move the music to that so that
the primary drive could be used for other things. I installed a 1.5TB
drive in the machine and formatted it as one partition with ext4 using
Ubuntu's 'Disk Utility' app. 

I then moved all my music to a 'Music' folder on the new drive. The
problem is that I cannot add the new drive/folder in the LMS web
settings.

The old drive was located at: /home/<username>/Music (This can be found
fine by clicking browse in LMS web settings)

When I go to the settings page at 'Basic Settings','Media Folders' and
click browse, I cannot find the new drive - it is not showing up.

The new drive is located at: /media/mediadisk

I can access the drive either by using Nautilus, or by navigating
through the terminal, but if I use the 'browse' feature from within LMS
web settings the folder cannot be found. The 'mediadisk' drive is not
appearing in the 'media' folder.

I have even tried pasting: "/media/mediadisk/Music" into the 'Media
Folders' field but nothing works?!

I must confess I am pretty new to Linux but if I was to guess I would
say it was a problem with the permissions, right? Can anyone help?
