[Server-devel] trouble in paradise

[Curt Thompson]

Hi Joanne,

Sorry, I might not be able to talk on the phone today, but I'll try to
help via email.  I've included xsce-devel and server-devel lists in case
others can help more.

Here are my thoughts..
Was the drive formatted for use with Linux before the files were copied?

Does the directory "knowledge" show up in the root of the new drives if
you browse to it (by double-clicking "File System" and clicking
everything under "DEVICES")

On the new drive, is the directory "knowledge" in all lower-case letters?

As far as I understand, school server should pick up any drive with
"knowledge" in the root of the drive, so you *should* be able to copy
/knowledge from one hard drive to another, plug it in, and access IIAB
through the web interface at localhost or 127.0.0.1.
