Can't figure out how to install unmenu


Recommended Posts

I am new to unraid but wanted to use unmenu to troubleshoot. I looked at the wiki but I must have done something wrong.

 

I downloaded the 3 zip files

Made a folder on my unraid thumbdrive called boot then in that I put a folder called unmenu. On wiki it looked like this was the way to do it.

Extracted all files to boot/unmenu

I started unraid typed /boot/umenu/uu but it does not reckonize the command.

 

I know I did soemthing wrong but I guess I am not understanding how to do this.

 

Any help would be great.

This is a common problem.  The root of the flash drive is boot.  So now your structure is essentially

/boot/boot/unmenu

.  It need to be only

/boot/unmenu

 

That should fix your problem, if it does not then post back here and i will try to help a little more.

 

I just want to clarify this a little further...

 

When you open up the root of the drive (lets say the drive letter is z:), the path z: is equivalent to /boot when the flash drive is running in the unraid machine.

 

if you look at the flash drive via the flash share via the network.  \\SERVERNAME\flash is equivalent to /boot.

 

this means to install into a directory that is defined in unraid as /boot/unmenu then one ONLY needs to create a unmenu directory in the root of the flash drive (either z: or \\SERVERNAME\flash) and install into it.

 

Cheers,

Matt

 

edit:  fixing the slash direction in one of the paths
