You have indeed oversimplified it, in that there are files inside that directory that are needed for LMS to even start up, that's before any scanning has ever taken place. My first tentative at running LMS was without a stick and I found an 11hr scantime to be a bit excessive. That's why I tried to replicate what JackOfAll hinted at in his first post on the old thread. I didn't even bother to do a "ls" in that directory, figuring that, since you can simply delete the cache files on Windows and LMS recreates them, it would do the same on Fedora. WRONG ... ;) In short: even for a brand new installation you must first make the copy and put it back in place before starting LMS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bakker_be's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30369 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98544 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
