How about if you go back to the instructions and add the auto-run script?
Here's the appropriate section from Fields: "I use the startup script that's here: http://fieldnetworks.com/slim/start-slim.sh. It is, admittedly, a bit of a hack in that it does not provide nearly all the functionality of a typical Linux startup script (namely, it does not have facilities to stop, restart, or provide the status of the slimserver.pl process). On the other hand, it is very simple and does meet my only requirement: it starts the SlimServer software. (For those familiar with Linux, the startup script provided with the RPM version of SlimServer will not work on the LinkStation). You can download my script (or create your own), copy it to your LinkStation network share from your PC, and then telnet into your LinkStation and move the file to /mnt/slim-data: "mv /mnt/name-of-network-share/start-slim.sh /mnt/slim-data". You then need to make sure the script is executable: "chmod +x /mnt/slim-data/start-slim.sh". Finally, create the link: "ln -s /mnt/slim-data/start-slim.sh /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S95slimserver". You can verify that it worked by rebooting your LinkStation (type "reboot" at the command prompt). Give it a few minutes, and your SqueezeBox should reconnect to the SlimServer." -- TiredLegs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TiredLegs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6201 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29734 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
