I already found your CD How-to. Very useful. Also the tip about
re-scanning, thanks.

Just read that post, thank you. I will mostly be working headless
through ssh anyway. Exept for the ripping. That's how I handle my
existing LMS dedicated Box already.

I have a few tweaks applied to my VB which I would recommend you look
into

I heavily modified the ripping config file - etc/ripit/config - to use
an artist/album structure, dispense with .m3u playlist files and some
over stuff. The instructions for this are still available in the Vb wiki
at http://wiki.vortexbox.org/cd_how-to_s

I also switched off immediate re-scanning of my library as I found that
the headless nature of the CD rip could throw up problems from time to
time that I wanted the opportunity to correct before re-scanning. You do
this by commenting out line 37 of /opt/vortexbox/post-rip-process

Important Note. 
Once you have updated to 7.9 nightly - recommended - you can't update VB
itself through the Web GUI you must use the method described earlier in
this thread.

I  roughly assembled the machine to test VortexBox 2.4. Runs smoothly,
did also some test rips. Looks good, muich easier for casual ripping (my
CD library is completely ripped already, so I would only do a CD from
time to time).

I also noticed that 2.4 comes already with LMS 7.9. Which is nice--but I
haven't got any update messages yet. I assume, it updated to the latest
nightly when I first updated VortexBox after the initial install. Or do
I have to manually install the latest nightly?
