Hello to all. I had successfully set up SoA on a Wandboard back in 2015
('see this thread'
(https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?103319-LMS-on-Wandboard-with-ReadyNAS-and-Squeezebox-Touch/page10)).
It was operating over the network with my music files on a ReadyNAS. Now
the NAS is dead and I've copied all the files on it to a single hard
drive connected directly to the Wandboard. My old installation of SoA
had continued to work fine until we had a power failure one day, after
which the Wandboard wouldn't boot.

I followed both sets of instructions from the beginning of this thread
(the "simplest way..." and the "more manual way...") but was unable to
get a working SoA install (browser won't do anything with
xxx.xxx.x.xx:9000). I'm left with an Arch Linux that works fine and that
I've updated, and I've also set up NFS and SMB sharing. Scattered around
in it are various parts of SoA that were copied over during my second
attempt to install it.

I have an image of the former working (but now non-booting) SoA install
and I've set up a comparison between it and the Arch Linux root
partition currently on the Wandboard. My question is: How can I copy
over the necessary parts of the old SoA install from the image to the
root filesystem that's now on the Wandboard, so that the existing
Wandboard install will operate as SoA was intended to work? 

I realize that the consensus here is tending toward using other devices
and other OSs, but I could save myself a lot of trouble if I could do
what I've just described. Also I thought someone might be interested in
a _Jurassic Park_ type of experiment ;-).

Salutations to all
Les
