The log file you posted previously doesn't look good: "disk I/O error" sounds like an issue with your disk, or running out of disk space (for the partition where the db is living). Please check the state of your disk(s). -- Michael ___ Squeezecenter

Hallo Michael, thanks for your quick reply. I checked the hard disk space immediatley - it took a while. The self-test revealed no error. As described, the reinstallation was successful - just the scan after the start, is running or in an endless loop - depending on how you take it ... Discove

This is a known issue with My Book Live devices. The partition in which the Squeezebox cache resides is too small. You will need to change the location of the Squeezebox cache. Look here: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84735. --

I used MBL live before. Fine until my collection getting larger than 30,000 songs (all FLAC) or so. A full scan will take hours and often failed. You will have better luck by removing the cache directory before a full scan. The MBL's hardware has only 256M ram and is not enough for LMS. I am
