Hey Ryan, Actually, I wrote the tutorial, and as Wayne points out, there are definitely simpler ways of achieving a basic Rivendell installation. It's based on an installation I did for UCLA Radio here in Los Angeles. And I wanted to document the process with as much detail as possible.
The biggest problem I have with most Linux documentation, is that there's a lot of information scattered around, but sometimes it leaves out too much detail or becomes obsolete. I'm planning to update the tutorial soon. For example, Drew Roberts from the Rivendell and Liquidsoap mailing lists -- shared his snippet that finally got my Liquidsoap talking with Jack -- so I'd like to include that. I'd also like to do a tutorial that focuses specifically on streaming. Feel free to leave comments, so I can make changes/improvements to the tutorial. All feedback is welcome! The key areas the tutorial focuses on, are: - Setting up a Rivendell network (server and clients) - Sharing audio across the network with NFS - Auto-mounting the shares without messing with fstab - Improving boot time with the AutoNFS script. - Configuring Rivendell dropboxes for easily importing audio - Rivendell host examples for your network so you can dedicate individual machines for on-air, production, music, etc... Hope it helps you. Brandon Sent from outer space...
