I don't know the language your error is in, but it looks like samba isn't configured normally or it's not started... and why dafuq are you sharing WHOLE ROOT of your FS? that's so bad I can't even...

For me RPI also doesn't boot without the USB drive attached. You can disable auto mounting and then boot, then use "mount -a" to mount everything in fstab. Samba does work, but it can't map your config to any folders 'cause the drive isn't mounted...

So it was in fact a failing hard drive, as it was also heating up a bit more than it should. With the new hdd everything is smooth and nice, can copy to it on wifi through samba with 7-8mbps without stuttering. So far everything is good, so I think this is solved. Why I blamed the raspberry in the f...

I doubt rsync can restore in case of an SD card corruption, in which case you'll need to wipe everything and reinstall. I simply make SD card clones every month and save 3 most recent clones, it's much easier to restore as well (at least for me!). I just have an 8gb sd card.

Most likely, yes. I do keep monthly SD card mirrors for cases like this, so as a last resort, I will try to restore to a mirror some months back and see how that goes.

Bump: last night installed the latest (4.3.3) samba (don't do it! it took me whole night to compile it!!) but the issue is still there, BUT if I upload through sftp to my home dir, which is on the SD card, then it all goes perfectly. So this must be related to USB somehow. Edit: Can't seem to read l...

Well, if it's apache you're trying to configure, then try this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12202021/where-is-my-httpd-conf-file-located-apache You want to change the Listen option to something else and restart apache. To reach your rpi from the internet then you will also need to forward that...

Hello, I have an external drive (3.5", external power source, etx4 partition) connected to the RPI and I've been having unbearable transfer stutters lately when transferring some large files to it (all ok for small files). By stutters I mean when I start the transfer, it uploads around 30-40MB witho...
