Just a hint:
Install XP on a harddisk
Use a clone tool to copy the harddisk onto the CF Card
Keep the harddisk as a backup (in case you have to redo).
This is much faster than installing XP on the CF itself.

If you do not have a harddisk, make a copy of the CF card in another computer.
You can use "miniPE.v2k5.09.16-XT DigiWiz Updated.iso" for this.
Just search on a torrent search site.

Succes,
Ben

Just press Ausfuhren, and Mediaportal should start up.
This warning has nothing to do with .NET trusting the share.

I have read that this warning has to do with IE7 (or other security updates)
There are two solutions to this problem

Solution 1
To disable the warning start the Group Policy Editor (Start > Run, type gpedit.msc and press OK)

Go to:
-User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components >Attachment Manager-

then set -Inclusion list for low file types- to
Enabled and enter the file types you don't want to be warned about in
the box (for example: .exe).

Solution 2
You can also try the following:
In Internet Explorer, click tools - Options
Under security settings, select "Intranet zone"
Click the "Sites" button, Uncheck the box that says "Automatically detect intranet network".
Checked the "Include all network paths (UNCs).
Click OK


Success

thx ill try this today hopefully it will work :D

EDIT:
everything works fine now :) thx alot for your 2 realy helpfull tutorials.

another edit:
it worked exactly 4 times, the drive is mapped everything is fine, but MP doesnt autostart :/
i thought this method maps this drive as a system service, so it is started befor the user logs in ...... :/
it starts when i klick it after startup, but it doesn't in autostart.

I also noticed this some times
In my case it starts the configuration application and not mediaportal.
Strange behaviour :-(

To make a work around, you can add this small cmd script to the startup
Disable autostart of mediaportal.


REM Send 5 pings to localhost (~5s delay)
ping -n 31 localhost >NUL
REM Starts Mediaportal (Do not forget to define the right path)
C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortal.exe

Is there also a way to change the folder of MP's thumb, database, cache and so on?
It's would be nice to move "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Anwendungsdaten\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal" to the server.
At the moment I always have to use the commit.bat when I change s.th. in the MPConfiguration.
