Re: [Urgent]How to change PirateBox Shared Folder to USB by default on Raspberry Pi - 10 years ago

Hi VantagE, I would suggest you some primary steps. first mount the USB Storage or install any automunting tool, make a Shared folder in your USB drive, then create a link by the following command, sudo ln -s /media/usb0/Shared/ /opt/piratebox/www/Shared Note:- Please check the mount path of your USB drive.
