Setting up HDD

You can do it through the box, have you swapped drives or something? Have you got swap file enabled? Have you got the drive mounted? Without knowing what your set up is or build you are using, it makes it difficult

If you are on a vix system then go into menu/setup/vix/mount manager.
This will tell you how your drive is set up

Hi Can ayone put a step by step for wooshbuild ? I have had it working on a 8gb Flash drive but have tried 3 different HDD drives varying from 100Gb, 250GB & 500GB units light up but cant see them on zgemma have formatted all to FAT 32 and can see them on my PC when plugged in

Have tried HD and now cant even see my original flash drive
 
Have you tried plugging them in the front then looking in mounts, finding that drive and formatting to ext 3 or ext4

Following the instructions at the start, when i get to the end i get
The directory media/hdd/timeshift is not ext2, ext3, ext4 or nfs partition. Make sure you select a valid partation type.
Please help.
Cheers
 
Hello mate I know this is an old thread but I've followed these settings all way thru and all the same. I can record but when I try time shift its just not doing anything could you help please?
 
largo, did you initiate Hdd at the start of build? Check the mount of your drive, is your timeshift setting directed at your HDD

Press blue button, look for mount you can check the Hdd to once pressed blue button, that's at the bottom

I've pressed blue and came up with 6 options with vix being number 6 should I have HDD on there?

I've found mount and my HDD is mounted
 
Didn't realise you was on vix, it's not officially supported, I know people go on about it, but it's not really for zgemmas.
