Issue with new install on Rocky Linux 9.5

New user here, I have inherited a working install of Deadline 10.1.x with the repo on a NAS and the database on a Windows 10 machine. I’m looking to stand up a new Deadline 10.4 instance with the database on a machine running Rocky Linux 9.5, and pointing to another location on that same NAS.
I’ve resolved a few stumbling blocks but am at a point where the installer complains that my input value for the repo location is “not a rooted path but a relative one.” The value I input was of the format smb://192.168.1.100/share-name/repo-folder-name which doesn’t seem relative to me… but it sounds like the installer really wants what type of value should I be using to correctly point to a share on a NAS such as this? I mean… that is the full path according to my machine.

The installer is looking for a mount point like /mnt/share-name/repo-folder-name as it will need to be permanently mounted. you can set this in /etc/fstab
