Any way to mount Samba/CIFS on the Mi Box? Root?

by firsthour

I can connect to my NAS in Kodi/SPMC for videos, but I'm interested in having a permanent mount to my shares so I can access my ROMs in Retroarch or another emulator, is there any way to do this? Is root possible on the Mi Box yet?

looking for the same thing...don't get your hopes up. I've been trying to mount NFS shares on Android since ICS the only way I've ever been able to do it is on a fully r00ted filesystem. I don't know if anyone is working on r00t for this device.

I don't know if it's the same on Mi Box, but it should be since it's based on Android TV. I'm not around my Shield at the moment, but I have mounted via SMB/CIFS through Android TV. It's buried in Settings somewhere.
