Media Centre PC
I have a small form factor PC.
I am new to Linux and am looking for advice. The main functions of the computer are to store all my files (MP3’s, Movies etc) so that other computers on my network can access them. I also want to connect it using TV using tv out and use a remote to play music, TV, movies etc. What linux distro would you recommend also additional programs? I have one 74Gb SATA drive and one 120Gb IDE drive. How would you recommend partitioning? Where should I place the shares? Thanks in advance for your help ThomasJay |
Hello and welcome to Linux Questions.

I have one 74Gb SATA drive and one 120Gb IDE drive. How would you recommend partitioning? You will need to read alot before doing all this. If you are doing *nix to windoze shares see http://us4.samba.org/samba/ There are a massive amount of threads on here related to samba, networking, setting up, installing,media players,movie players etc..... Hope that helps some and hope I did not mislead you. Good luck! By the way thats just my 2 pennies, TIMTOWTDI. |
