>Step 2. Out of the box the installation will no work so you will need to configure the software>I am using the sda1 usb device so please adjust in case you have something else>Go to /tmp/mnt/sda1/asusware/etc and edit mediatomb.conf>
>You need the software to run on your internal interface so change this line>MT_OPTIONS="">to >MT_OPTIONS=" -e br0">
>As there is no root user on the box you will need to change these lines>>MT_USER="root">MT_GROUP="root">to>>MT_USER="admin">MT_GROUP="admin">
