Here's some notes from my attempts to get MVP and NSLU2 to play nice. The following will allow MVPMC to recognize and play MPEG2 files from the NLSU2.

Windows shares

The following has worked in mounting Windows shares (hint: put it in your dongle file):

mount.cifs //192.168.1.77/files /win_files/ -o user=mediamvp,pass=mediamvp,rsize=34000

Note: In the example above, I added the mediamvp user to the stock NSLU2 via the web interface.

NFS shares

1. Add NFS to the NSLU2 via the ipkg command (Note: This is on a NSLU2 that has had one of the Slug firmwares loaded. If you don't want to modify your NSLU2, stick with the Windows version above.)
2. Add or edit the NFS line in the dongle file so that it looks like:

/etc/nsfmount.sh 192.168.1.77:/share/hdd/data/public /var/nslu2

Note: Your dongle file lives in your tftpboot directory (i.e., root for your TFTP server) and is the same filename as you bin file for the MVP, except it has ".config" tacked on as an extension. In other words, if your bin file is named "mvpmc.bin", your dongle file will be called "mvpmc.bin.config".
