Support sshfs!

Fri Jul 13, 2007 8:19 am
Hi,
First of all I want to say I love amarok a lot :biggrin:.
But, I have mounted a sshfs filesystem, and amarok doesn't recognize the files on the filesystem :(.
Can I somehow bypass this? Maby by converting the filesystem (a program that mounts the filesystem and pretends like it is a ext3-filesystem)?

Well.. I've 'solved' the problem.
1. Create a file on the server: dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/file bs=1024 count=SIZE
2. Create a filesystem in the file: /sbin/mkfs.ext2 /path/to/file
3. Mount your SSH folder with the file in it
4. Do 'mount -o loop /path/to/file /path/to/mountpoint' on the localmachine and your ready :D

Everything that's written in red, you have to change to your own situation.
