Had my mediaserver set-up, running like a charm including plex services to many remote devices. Was having some trouble adding new media prepared on one PC over my home LAN as a windows share, so I started messing around with permissions and sharing until I had it screwed up good. Decided my only choice was to do a restore using my Clonezilla backup. Learned something new in that process, but it was a painful lesson. My Clonezilla backup was on the top directory of a 300 GB WD Passport. My OS drive in the server is only a 100GB SSD. In the course of doing the restore Clonezilla erased the SSD, but then could not do the restore because the source drive was 3 times larger than the target. Tried all kinds of ways to migrate the backup to a 32 GB flash drive but got no where. Bottom line, had to do a complete reinstall and set it up anew. Now, to the point - I had my 4, 4TB media drives in a greyhole pole, so each of them already has a greyhole directory on them. My plan was to re-create the greyhole pool on the now restored system, but am not sure whether I need to do something with the existing greyhole directories first. (Also, BTW, I am having trouble installing the MySQL plugin - though other PLEX and other plugins installed no problem. Just goes to "Get: http:// etc, and sits there).
Any advice would be appreciated.
UPDATE: The issue installing MySQL (and a couple of other problems) was solved. I had to comment the deb CDROM out of my sources.list
