Installing Emby on secondary OS


Recommended Posts

A few days ago I installed ArcoLinuxB with the Plasma desktop on my 2nd SSD and as of yesterday finished getting it exactly the way I want it. The mounts are the same as in my Manjaro, as well as the permissions. What I would like to know before I go ahead and install Emby is there any way to check that there won't be a conflict with Emby on my Manjaro drive? I ask cause in the past I had Manjaro and Emby ran perfectly. I then installed Garuda on my 2nd SSD, set up the mounts and permissions the same as in Manjaro, installed Emby and could not get the server to run. I restarted, logged into Manjaro and I could no longer get Emby to run there when I had just run Emby prior to doing the install in Garuda. I know one OS should not affect another in any way but it did. My sneaking hunch is that Garuda itself was the issue. With Garuda in the past Wine stable never worked where Wine-Staging did, they used I believe 1001 over 1000 which cause it's own issues, had to replace what they had for root actions on the rightclick menu with KDE-Servicemenues-Rootactions to Rootaction to behave correctly.  Now that said in both Manjaro and Arco username and computer name are identical, and the mount points for my storage partitions  and drives are as below. Thanks

/mnt/name of partition or drive/

Hi, I'm not sure how you could check for conflicts ol without trying to install. Let us know how you get on. Thanks.

@Luke Just installed the Emby Beta in Arco and added my TV Series library and just checked it and all looks good. At this point it's looking like the past issue of having Emby install on two OS's was because of Garuda. Not surprised since every time I had a permission it was something to do with Garuda, any other OS I've installed Emby on Emby has worked out of the gate. I still have to log back into Manjaro and make sure all's well there, but something tells me it will be.  Just making this post so you guys have the information for others that may need it. Thanks for the input, much appreciated.
