Twonky on Buffalo Linkstation Mini

[highpriest]

Hi all,

I have installed on my Buffalo Linkstation Mini the Twonky media server. I used the package for the Linkstation Pro, which I was told is the same in principle. Prior to the install I got hold of the root password.

The install went through OK and the server got installed. I have also bought the license immediately. The web interface worked fine too - so I configured it a little further. I was also able to access the server from my PS3 and stream movies - no problem.

The only issue I have is that when I restart the Linkstation Twonky is not booting and the old media server which came with the box starts up. Anyone could advise how I can make Twonky start all the time and get rid of permanently of the pre-installed crap?

Thanks a lot for any advice

Regards

P

Sounds like you have missed to add the Twonky Startup to the startup script of the Station itself.
Please take a look here at Jimbos description of the HowTo:
http://buffalo.nas-central.org/forums/v ... =39&t=2999

Log in via Telnet and do these both command line inputs:

Code: Select all

cp  /etc/init.d/rcS  /etc/init.d/rcS_old

Copy the existing startup into a backup file - for security reasons

Code: Select all

echo "exec_sh twonky" >> /etc/init.d/rcS

Add the Twonky startup to the startup of the OS

Have fun with Twonky!
