Hello to all.
is there anyway to enable Samba to acess a nuc with hass.io even if hass.io does not start for any reason?
basically i want to 
1 - Be able to acess HA folder if for any reason HA does not start and consequently samba does not start so that i can repair it
2 - Full acess to all disk structure by samba and not only to HA. for example using add-on configurator i can acess a lot more folders than via samba addon on
thanks
Only if you don’t use HassOS will you get full access… ie installing debian/docker/generic Linux install. HassOS you can run ssh in ‘debug’ mode but you still won’t get full access.
hi. i use Hassio, no hassos.
so why with addon configurator i can have full acess?
thanks
If you use Hass.io then unless you installed it as a generic Linux install or similar, you do have HassOS hence see my post above.
yes i use Hassio…
so why with configurator addon i can acess the root folder of the drive?
thanks @DavidFW1960
It’s not the root folder of the drive - it’s just the root of the HA container…
And how can I access it ?
You shouldn’t need access to it. Anything you change will be wiped out on restart typically. Also, that link you sent shows that it’s installing HassOS on a NUC (you linked it in another thread). HassOS is the operating system. Hassio is the docker style home assistant installation.
You can’t. The samba addon exposes only defined directories. The configurator exposes other directories in the file system. The only way to get full access is to not use HassOS but to instead use a generic Linux install of hassio with debian or Ubuntu.
