I don't think you can use symbolic links to jump outside a chroot, but someone will correct me if I'm wrong. But you can achieve something similar by either (1) having a dedicated partition for the media files, and mount it inside the chroot or (2) use NFS to export the directory with the media files, wherever it is, and then mount it inside the chroot. > > Under /home/YourUser is usually a good place to have your own folders. > As /home is usually well sized for a normal station. > > Dan > > ------ > Nuggetsman.com - Repo: https://code.5mode.com > > Please reply to the mailing-list, leveraging technical stuff. > > Nov 13, 2024 13:36:21 Zé Loff <zel...@zeloff.org>: > > > On Wed, Nov 13, 2024 at 05:34:31AM +0000, Richard Bostrom wrote: > >> Which folder is best practices keeping my music in, if building a music > >> server? > >> > >> Thanks. > > > > One with enough space. > > > > More seriously, it's almost impossible to answer, without knowing what > > kind of software you are planning on running.
