Guest tirengarfio Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Hi, during the intallation of an app called andlinux it ask this: "Please create a shared folder and enter the requested information. Name of the Windows file share: (here i have to write)" So i go to "Shared documents" and create inside a folder, but when i go to install process and insert the name of that folder, it says "There is no share folder with the specified share name". What's the problem? What i have to do exactly? Bye
