Assuming kernel mounts are achieved by using fstab or autofs, I tried the former using the instructions provided here: Configuring fstab based NFS share mounts
I first used the hint at the end to show the mount directories that my NAS offers:
osmc@osmc:~$ showmount -e 192.168.1.73
Export list for 192.168.1.73:
/Upmix Music (everyone)
/Surround Music (everyone)
/Stereo Music (everyone)
/Quad Music (everyone)
/Music Videos (everyone)
/Movies (everyone)
/Concerts (everyone)
/Atmos Music (everyone)
/Artist Information (everyone)
When I typed the command to edit my /etc/fstab file, it opened what appeared to be an editor, but there was no text to go to the end to add a line:
I thought that was strange, but I typed in a line similar to the example:
192.168.1.2:/nfs /mnt/TV\040Shows nfs noauto,x-systemd.automount 0 0
Except I substituted “/nfs /mnt/TV\040Shows” with “/Artist\40Information”. I did a Crtl + X, Y, Enter, and typed and entered sudo mount -a, but it came back with an error. So I went back into the editor, added “/nfs /mnt” saved the changes, and did sudo mount -a. This time it came back to the command prompt, so I reloaded systemd. However, when I tried to go to the share, it said No such file or directory:
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo nano /etc/fstab
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo mount -a
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo systemctl restart remote-fs.target
osmc@osmc:~$ cd /mnt/Artist\ Information
-bash: cd: /mnt/Artist Information: No such file or directory
So I was unable to do an fstab mount of the AIF on my NAS. I left out one or two mistakes I made which I figured out right away and which aren’t relevant to solving my problem. My logs are posted here: https://paste.osmc.tv/zopasosubu
