Thanks, I can see the BOOM is alive, it responds to power button, but
screen stays off. As I mistakenly removed squeezebox server from my NAS
(wanted to install latest version, but didn't realize I had to keep the
old one installed), I can't see it there. I think the boom has lost its
network settings, as it doesn't connect to wifi. Without screen, I can't
troubleshoot much further, or I need to disassemble it myself, with
which I broke it last time ;-).
