No problem.

The usual way to access samba shares, on any linux, not just TS boards, is to
mount the share. man mount can help you here. Use the 'smbfs' or 'cifs'
filesystem types when you do the mount. (Either would work, I think, but CIFS
is the recommended one going forward).
Looking at the configs for the TS kernel, I see that neither the smbfs or cifs
modules are built, so you will need to compile those modules. Once built,
insert them into the running kernel: 'modprobe cifs'. You can check that cifs
is available by the command 'cat /proc/filesystems', then mount the share.

Take a look at the manuals on the TS website, I believe they cover recompiling
pretty well. Look for at chapter 6 of this manual, for example:
http://www.embeddedarm.com/documentation/software/arm-linux-ts72xx.pdf
Another option would be to use nfs rather than cifs, that would not require any
recompiling.
