Hi Rudolf, it sounds like you might be having two independent issues, one relating to to the network drive and one relating to the LMS versions. I think we need to separate these out and work on them one by one, otherwise you will go crazy trying to figure out what is caused by what.
First off for testing purposes, put a few albums of songs on the hard drive of the computer and ignore the NAS for now, lets focus on the server and firmware issues first. Its best to load LMS 7.7.1 on the computer, it's the same version used by mysqueezebox.com so you should not get a conflict there. Hardwire both the Touch and the computer running LMS to the network, if one or both are too far away, temporarily move them to a location where you can wire it up. (they can be plugged into different switches/routers as long as both are on the same LAN) This is all to try and cut down on the number of variables involved. With a browser connect to the web interface of this LMS <IP>:9000 and point the server to the hard drive and directory where you put the few albums. Do a full scan of the library. When this is done start the Touch, it should find LMS, it may download firmware to a 7.7.1 version if one is not already on the Touch. At this point you should be able to play those few albums, play internet radio, switch to mysqueezebox.com and play radio, services etc. It should just work and not cause any new firmware updates. If this doesn't work let us know right away and we can try and straighten it out. If this is all working, then try adding some music to the disk and try a rescan. Does that do what you expect? If that works, THEN we can try running off the NAS. A NAS adds several layers of complexity. For starters you need to be able to both read and write to the NAS since the database files are usually stored on the same disk as the music files so NAS setup as readonly will not work. It can get tricky to make sure that the NAS gets mounted read/write. It can also be a user issue, frequently a remotely mounted filesystem can be read by anybody but can only be written to by a specific user. Again this can get interesting to setup properly taking bother proper settings on the NAS and the PC. I hope that gives some hints on how to proceed.
