Migrating from Windows to Ubuntu

Post by tucansam »

Am moving Sab/SB from a Windows XP system to an Ubuntu 12.04 system.

Two questions.

I've moved the sabnzbd.ini file and the changes took. Cool. Can I move the contents of c:\docs\user\local\app data\sab\admin and keep all of my queue? I have a lot of stuff queued up that I don't want to lose/wait for.

Second question... What is the preferred method for setting paths? I am using an unraid server for media, and the Sab/SB Ubuntu system is separate. On Windows I was of course mapping network drives to the SMB shares on unraid. Should I mount using nfs?

The content of "incomplete" is the actual queue.
So you would need to copy that as well.

I have no specific advice on how to mount drives.
