Hi gabbel,

first of all thank you for your magnificient instructions. I managed to
get the SB server running in no time.

My only issue is the following: I do not quite get why I had to install
the three mysql packages in step 3:

> aptitude install mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev

I stumbled upon that because I was asked to set up a MySQL root user
password in the process, which I (in contrast to public habit) did.
But—I never had to enter that very password again when I installed SB.
SB just worked magically. Some research pointed me in the following
direction:
"SlimServer version 6.5.0 and later includes its own /embedded/ MySQL
instance" (Source: SqueezeboxWiki at
http*://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/ExistingMySQLInstance)

It would be great if you could clarify this for me and probably assist
me with the uninstallation of the now obsolete packages (if they are).
Is it as simple as
aptitude remove --purge mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev
or could I harm my otherwise unhacked (apart from the SB install, that
is) WD MyBook Live?

Thank you very much in advance for all your efforts!
