Hi, i have just set up my TM Single in the bedroom which has no HDD connected or installed. So i am going to set up a network share to my LX3 downstairs which has a 500gb HDD. I was just wondering is it possible to partition the HDD in the LX3 to enable epg data etc to be stored?

would you not use a usb for epg and set that up that way:thumbsup:

Yes if I cannot create a partition on the HDD that will be the route I will take. Thanks

Your better of buying a cheap stick and using that.

If the hdd is in deep standby and twin wakes you probably won't get epg

Yeah I think I will. Cheers for the replies guys

I am trying to set up the network mount, when I browse the network neighbourhood I can see my other box but when I click on it it doesnt expand to show the HDD to select?

you could use NFS to setup up network to LX3. i did similar on solo2 and vu zero

Hi John Doe,

I have installed NFS on both of the receivers but when I look at the network neighbourhood my TM Single can see the LX3 downstairs but when I select it to see the drop down boxes to select the HDD nothing happens?

Yeah, had already rebooted once and it didn't show up but rebooted again and bam, just answered my own question though about storing epg data on a network share
