Newbie first install tried different options, any help appreciated.

the app expects you to mount additional storage.

Edit: Since by default the app only has access to it’s own storage the app would be useless without mounting additional storage you want to browse.

I created and Dataset called “Backup”
I set “Host Path (Path that already exist on the system)”
to:
/mnt/Data/Backup

What else do I need to do?

and to what folder did you mount it to? You should have also added a path inside the container. Otherwite the mount doesn’t work
for e.g. plex you would have to mount /mnt/data/movies (path on the host) to /movies (path inside the container)

Need to have the proper permissions set on the “Backup” dataset. Refer to the Lawrence Systems youtube video.

Thanks for the reply, the version in the video was slightly different from the version install, I went back and watched the video and made the changes to make it work. Must say it is not very intuitive.
