Thanks for your help. I'm not familiar with Linux and my network knowledge is limited. LMS is running & streaming from my old NAS (LMS 7.7.X). What I wanted to do is to dump the NAS and instead run my old Squeezebox Touch & the new Boss2 streaming from a new music library stored on an SSD attached to the BOSS2. So that the piCorePlayer on the BOSS2 is running squeezelite & LMS (8.X). That does not work. Additionally I want to copy ripped music files from my Ubuntu-based Laptop to the SSD attached to the BOSS2 via network and guessed SAMBA is necessary to do this. Is it possible to keep the latest LMS (8.X) on the piCorePlayer and use the new SSD attached to Boss2 as storage for the new music library. And it would be great if I could copy music files via network from Laptop to the SSD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Elmar.F's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71739 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113512 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
