I've gone back to my Raspberry Pi LMS for now, but I think I'll rebuild my intel box into a Linux based NAS and run LMS on it - probably use ubuntu, as I'm reasonably familiar with it... jemhayward's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=55065 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106820 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Intel Atom 1.6GHz 2GB RAM - Linux LMS build?
My music collection is about 500GB and it is unlikely to grow much as I use Tidal for half my listening now, so I was wondering about fitting a 1TB SSD instead of the small HDD and this would also make the box silent as it is already fanless. Does LMS allow the collection to be split over different discs? I think it does but I've never tried it... Also, any opinions about using a standard distro like Ubuntu and installing LMS on that vs a specific system like Daphile? jemhayward's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=55065 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106820 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Intel Atom 1.6GHz 2GB RAM - Linux LMS build?
I have an old Acer mini PC that is presently running windows 7 and was my LMS server for a time. I Don't need it for any of its other duties, so was thinking of turning it into a pure LMS server, and maybe using Linux, or an off the shelf build like Vortexbox or Daphile. The machine has an Intel Atom processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 150GB HDD (not SSD) - I have an external USB HDD which is 1.5TB that has my local music collection on it. Anyone got experience to share? jemhayward's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=55065 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106820 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
