Great post! Thanks! Don't I know it! The older I get the harder it gets to "recover" old hidden knowledge from the internal HD ;) There have been so many answers to this thread so I'm about to lose the overview over all the suggestions. Am I right if I assume you suggest that I install Linux on the PC? That would work well for both LMS and network HD? There will also be good Linux software for ripping and editing music? Did I get it right that someone suggested running LMS from a USB stick connected to a PC? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SyrinxGC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63725 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109816 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
