Hi Wirrunna, I don't think you need Samba or the USB stick. From this version, you can set a switch to use 100% RAM (for piCorePlayer not LMS). You can actually remove the SD card and it will happily continue playing. Rebooting may be an issue without a SD card. :D The complications come from restoring all "the additional" stuff and configurations. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106755 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
