BeagleBone Black Music Player help with mounting VortexBox music files

[drsteve]

Posted this under the comments to the BeagleBone Black Music Player article as well.

 

I consistantly get error(13) permission denied when I attempt to mount music files from my VortexBox.

 

/etc/fstab file modification:

 

//[url="file://\\192.168.0.105\storage\music\flac"]192.168.0.105/storage/music/flac[/url]   /mnt/music  cifs  guest,_netdev  0 0

 

Attempts to mount using the command:

 

mount -a

 

result in the above error code.

 

I need help to figure out how to mount the VortexBox files.

 

Thanks to all in advance!

Does sudo mount -a ​help?

Sadly, no! Neither sudo mount -a nor sudo mount /mnt/music works! Both give the same error(13): Permission denied.

OK, gang we have ignition and liftoff! I got the VortexBox files to mount using nfs. Had to:

1. apt-get install nfs-common

2. Edit /etc/fstab file to 192.168.0.105:/storage/music/flac /mnt/music nfs soft,intr,ro,rsize=32768 0 0

3. mount -a

And the magic happened! The VortexBox flac files mounted!!

 

I sort of followed the recipe from this link: BeagleBone Black as an MPD server

 

I am now able to play the files into my Twisted Pear Dual Mono Opus DAC with USB receiver!

 

Listening to Ben Webster at the moment via this front end source!

 

Sound quality is excellent even with a standard SqueezeBox Touch (switching) power supply!
