Using Plex Media Server on a Raspberry PI 3

I am currently experimenting to create a cheap Plex Media Server running on a Raspberry Pi 3!

I am aiming to share my media to my chromecast and my smartphone. So that I can play my music everywhere or turn off my PC when watching a TV Show.

My own cheat sheet for commands I often use. It’s a work in progress.

See CPU Temperature
/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp

List hard disks
sudo blkid

Reboot
sudo reboot -n

Shutdown
sudo shutdown -h now

Upgrade your installed packages
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

See available disk space
df -h

What’s the best way to auto mount a usb drive or hard disk? What if the filesystem is ntfs?

To get a list of connected usb disks you can:

sudo blkid
